During the 2022 (34th) Senior PGA Professional Championship, golf cars will be provided as player (only) transportation for practice and championship rounds. Although a player may employ a caddie for the championship, all players' golf clubs must be transported on golf cars. Caddies must walk at all times during practice and/or Championship rounds, and in order to attend and participate in the 2022 Senior PGA Professional Championship, caddies must adhere to the following policies and regulations. Caddies will not be available, nor provided, through PGA of America, Santa Ana Golf Club or Twin Warriors Golf Club.

Caddies may walk on the greens to chart information during practice rounds as long as this does not interfere with the practice of any Contestant. Caddies may not walk on any green behind the PGA Rules Committee after 3:00p.m. on Wednesday, October 12. Caddies may not walk on greens when checking hole locations, nor may they interfere with play during Championship rounds. Additionally, during the tournament proper when not caddying during a round, caddies are not allowed on any hole that has been played or is being played by the lead group. Caddies are only allowed on the practice putting greens to retrieve chip shots or long putts, provided that the putting green is not crowded at such time.

Players (and caddies) are encouraged to monitor their own well-being and are strongly urged to withdraw and/or not attend the Championship if testing positive or exhibiting symptoms for COVID-19.

Caddies may not bet or wager on any aspect of the Senior PGA Professional Championship, nor may they provide any information concerning a Contestant and/or the Senior PGA Professional Championship to a party that the caddie knows, or has reason to believe, will use or is likely to use the information in connection with gambling on the Championship.

Only players will be allowed to ride in a golf car (no caddies or spectators) and only two* golf cars will be allowed per group. Unless permitted to ride by The Professional Golfers’ Association of America (The PGA of America) Rules Committee, violation of this golf car rule by the player or his caddie will subject the player to a $100 fine. Requests to use a golf car for disabilities must be submitted to the PGA of America in writing on or before the entry deadline at www.pgatournaments.com/forms.html. Procedures for review may be requested by the player/caddie at any time prior to the entry deadline.

*Exception: A “Riding Scorer” volunteer will be assigned to ride with each group on Saturday (Round 3) and Sunday (Final Round) for live scoring purposes. These volunteers will share a golf car with the single rider in each respective group.

Each caddie, unconditionally and irrevocably, grants and assigns to The PGA of America, without limitation, the right to use his/her name, image, voice and likeness in television, radio, motion picture, photographic, internet, social media, electronic, and all other media (whether now in existence or hereafter created) in connection with the caddie’s participation in the Senior PGA Professional Championship. No caddie shall take any action that interferes with The PGA of America’s ownership of the rights hereunder granted and assigned.
