Usga says no idea of ​​everyone’s driver on events

Oakmont, PA. – Testing drivers for the characteristic time, or CT, became the main monthly PGA, when Rory McIlroy’s driver, and later learned that the world was 1 Scottie Scheffler, who basically measures the driver’s “spring” driver.

Do the driver testing becomes a conversation point again, this week remains to be seen, but the USGA predicted the US testing.

According to John Bodenhamer, the CFC Schedule in the USG, about a third of the field, even more than 50 players, were tested this week in Oakmont. The USGA does not publish test results.

“There is nothing to suggest that there is a ton of drivers who are across the border,” Thomas Pagel said, the Chief Officer for Associations. “That’s less than a handful.”

After winning the PGA championship, Scheffler said he would love to see more “robust” testing and that the current process just goes “halfway”.

From the PGA championship, many players invited all or nothing to access driver tests and protocols that would either test the entire field on a particular event or nobody.

“We test them all year round and don’t think it’s needed (for testing each driver every week),” said Bodenhamer. “It would be difficult, from the time perspective, test every driver and we don’t want to be too intrusive.”

Currently, the player driver is tested about three times a year at different events on the PGA tour or the main championships, and logistical would be a challenge for testing the entire field on this week, and every test that lasts about 15 to 20 to 20 minutes. Instead, the USGA, along with other stakeholders of the game, claims more comprehensive testing is not required based on the number of drivers who fail to test the test.

The USGA entire Mike Whan has clearly stated that he was UsGa, along with R & A, plans to move forward with the back of the ball.

“We think that the testing we do is proportionally with the level of failure we see, which is quite minimal, when we see failing, at least, see the clubs just literally over the line,” he said literally creeping over the line. “It’s a line we’re drawing – we don’t see when we run drivers, drivers who are, Oh, my God, look where it went (across the border). “

Some players also questioned testing protocols, pointing out that there are no testing for CT or creep, on LIV golf events. The USGA, which manages CT testing on tour events and PGA championships, does not test drivers in Liv events, but Pagel said “any tour, men or women, which would provide support, support.”
