I suspect we will see this more often as the collegiate aspect of the sport grows.

Ill use myself as an example...I have been a registered Pro since 1995, have cashed multiple times BUT due to a serious lack of play, practice and just plain lameness my rating has fallen to 932ish. This would allow me to play in the Adv Master or Adv Mens division if I wanted too. But only in an A tier or lower event...No Majors. I dont see WHY I would ever want to stoop so low...   |
I dunno... maybe so you could play a round with Sam?
