PGA News Release

AP Sports:

According to a new release from the PGA, an additional international tour has been added to next year's tournament.

Concerned (along with NASCAR) with the erosion of viewers to X-games type events, and particularly concerned about cornering younger viewers, the PGA is introducing PGA-X.

Intended to be played according to traditional rules of golf, this will take place only in free fire zones, and will replace golf balls with "dud" scatterable mines that should have self destructed. The PGA expects that given the distance between the club and golfer, most golfers will survive the occasional exploding dud.

The PGA additionally expects to include this program in its international relief portfolio, which includes mine field clearing and demolition.
