There are mentions of the Web.com tour in the professional section, but it is referred to as the Korn Ferry tour now and I believe it should be changed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iecro7 ( talk • contribs) 17:41, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Could the following information added after this sentence “This is one of the four major championships in men's professional golf, the other three being played in the United States: The Masters, the U.S. Open, and the PGA Championship”:
“In 2022, LIV Golf was established, with players from multiple tours such as the PGA Tour, and DP World Tour joining the Invitational Series.”

Please Replace This Sentence: " Many golfers wear golf shoes with metal or plastic spikes designed to increase traction, thus allowing for longer and more accurate shots. "
With This Paragraph: " Many golfers wear shoes with either plastic spikes or many miniature rubber spikes designed to increase traction, allowing for a better grip on the ground during the swing. Some professional golfers still wear metal spikes, but this type of traction is prohibited on most golf courses in the United States and been out of use for amateurs for many years. " CITE: < https://tellmemoregolf.com/apparel/pro-golfers-wear-metal-spikes/>
Reasoning: Very few professional golfers wear metal spikes out on the course anymore, and no amateur golfers wear metal spikes in the modern era of golf due to golf course rules and the damage they cause to greens and clubhouse floors. What I've done is expand on the types of spikes used by golfers in the modern era, and clarify the over-estimated use of metal spikes, as they are #1 nearly impossible to purchase nowadays, and #2 outlawed in almost all golf courses. Reasoning for citation: Tell Me More Golf is edited by professional golf instructors. < https://tellmemoregolf.com/apparel/pro-golfers-wear-metal-spikes/> LungBreathe ( talk) 21:53, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
