Don’t call it ‘cheating’ at LPGA Q-School | The Morning Listen a Podcast with Alex Miceli Ep. 2

European Tour chief referee John Paramor cautions against using the 'C' pejorative for the offenders in the recent LPGA rules incident because that label implies a deliberate act

He talks with European Tour chief referee John Paramor, who cautions not to label the infraction as “cheating.” That implies intent; this was yet another misdeed via simple ignorance of the rules, Paramor contends. Austria’s Matthias Schwab, a second-year European Tour pro, talks about the differences between U.S. college golf and the professional game. He dissects his putting troubles simply: “They don’t go in enough."
