DISTANCE PROPOSAL UPDATE | MAR. 14

The USGA and R&A propose a new Model Local Rule (MLR) to address the impact of distance in golf, which would require the use of golf balls tested under modified launch conditions. The MLR is intended for use only in elite competitions and, if adopted, will have no impact on recreational golf. George Savaricas and Eamon Lynch talk with USGA CEO, Mike Whan and Chief Executive of the R&A, Martin Slumbers amongst others to help break down what all this means for the future of the game. Mike Whan and Martin Slumbers (2:57) Matt Adams (44:31) Michael Clayton (1:00:03)
