Full Version: Amateur Golfer Loses Status Due to TV Ad

George Twins fan
One of the guys from those recent Tiger Woods Buick commercials was an amateur golfer who has now lost his amateur status for a year because he accepted the car Tiger gives him in the ad. The USGA has rules that state an amateur cannot accept more than $500 at a single event.

I understand they need to have rules and all, but this is ridiculous. Tiger just walks onto the course with cameras hidden and gives the guy a car just for hitting the green. He wasn't entered in a golf tournament. A tad anal, if you ask me.

Don't Take Cars From Strangers!

and the funny thing is that the year is activated EVERYTIME the commercial airs.
