WSGA Play Days Open For Registration

New for 2012 the WSGA is scheduling several “Play Days” throughout Wyoming that will be open to WSGA Members only. This is an added Member Benefit and a way to give WSGA Members the opportunity to play private golf clubs which they would not ordinarily have access to.
These events will consist of an 18-hole round with merchandise certificates in gross and net. The events will be either a shotgun start or tee times, based on field size and preference of the host club. There will also be optional skins games in net and gross as well as a gross deuce pot. WSGA staff will be present to collect scorecards and calculate final results in gross, net and optional games. The WSGA will provide scorecards to all participants.
Players will have the option to make their own groupings and will be prompted to do so during sign up. The WSGA will make groupings for all other participants.
Registration opens at 9AM on Tuesday, May 15th, so gather your friends and come play some of Wyoming's best courses.

Rules School: Explaining the Dustin Johnson Ruling from the 2010 PGA Championship

By Mark Wilson

This article is the fifth in a six-part series exploring the history of The Rules of Golf. The objective of this series is to give the reader greater clarity on why Rules changes occur and what factors are considered when making, or not making, a Rules change. In conjunction with The R&A, the USGA writes, interprets and maintains The Rules of Golf to uphold the tradition and integrity of the game. The two organizations are joint authors and owners of The Rules of Golf and Decisions on the Rules of Golf. The Rules are revised on a quadrennial basis. Note about the author: Mark Wilson is the head golf professional at Watermark Country Club in Grand Rapids, Mich. He has been a member of the PGA of America Rules Committee since 1990, serving as a Rules official in over 50 Major championships and seven Ryder Cups. Wilson was the Rules Chair for the 2010 PGA Championship at Whistling Straits. The story of Dustin Johnson's unfortunate penalty on the 72nd hole of the 2010 PGA Championship for grounding his club in one of Whistling Straits' approximately 1,200 bunkers actually began in the early summer of 2004.
