After Nelly Korda And Charley Hull Called Out Slow Play, The LPGA Tour Has Taken Another Step Towards Fixing The Issue With Season-Long Tracker

The LPGA is introducing a new season-long tracker for bad hole times, with players being fined depending on how many they collect

The LPGA Tour has added a further update to the Pace of Play Policy introduced in February, with a season-long slow play tracker being brought in.

After complaints from the likes of Charley Hull and Nelly Korda, the LPGA brought in new measures in February, which included fines and penalty shots being handed out for players taking longer than allotted times to take individual shots.

Those measures have been well received by Hull and Korda among others, but the LPGA has now taken further action.

The LPGA and Epson Tours are introducing what a press release says is a “season-long tracking element for holes timed as part of a continuous effort to improve pace of play.”

Players will be tracked all season and face sanctions if they exceed a certain number of holes with bad times throughout the campaign.
