Tour Winner
I’ve been having a bit of a debate on Twitter and ironically Paul Lawrie weighed in.
I saw last week that Matt Southgate entered the clutch pro tour event where the winner got a £10k cheque, an 18 hole event.
Personally I don’t think it’s right a EuropeanTour player turning up in the hopes of making a quick buck (he won £600k last year and has career earnings of £2.5k) against up and coming pros who are financially strapped.
the organisers of the event stated the idea of it was to provide upcoming pros a way to win a season changing amount of money.
I’m interested in others views. Most of my mates agree with me, but seems I’m in the minority’s on social media
