LPGA Smells the Coffee, Rescinds English Language Rule

We previously have blogged about the new LPGA rule allowing for the suspension of golfers who can’t pass an English exam after two years on tour. The rule appeared aimed at the top Korean golfers.  After a backlash from sponsors, the public, and many Korean golfers, the LPGA has backed off plans for the English language requirement. A new proposal is in the works.  I guess it is back to the drawing board!
