    Hey

    On tour at the moment do you reckon many of them done their 4 year exams etc? Like are they actually qualified to give lessons if they needed to??

    Was something I was wondering with the talk of Lowery going pro etc...

    I know the likes of Harrington, McDowell, McIllory etc all went straight to tour golf ....

    Anyone?

    Very few - Ian Poulter is a notable exception

    Edit: He definitely worked as an assistant pro, not sure if he finished exams etc

    Damien McGrane worked as club pro and Played on tour for a few years. Robert Rock was a club pro also.

    I'm sure there are a few who have done their apprenticeship I dont know of many off hand though.
