There is no real point to cheating for
the master-oriented golfer. Cheating

Golf is the only game where the responsibility
is on the players to police
their own actions. In many other
professional sports, there appears

Gene Westmoreland is a renowned
rules expert who has been
an active member of the USGA
Championship Committee and is
a senior consultant with the Metropolitan
Golf Association. He understands
that golf is different from
other sports or games when it comes

" Every other sport you play, do
you have to know the rules? " Westmoreland
asks. " Well, sort of. But
when kids play these other games,

the rules. Like a shortstop on a
double play is almost lauded for the
fact that he didn't touch the bag, or
a football player for illegally holding
an opponent and disguising it. There
is no negative associated with it. "
In golf, meanwhile, players must
penalize themselves. Westmoreland
recognizes that it takes time for golfers
to understand, appreciate and
really enjoy playing golf as it was
meant to be played-that there is a
learning curve to the Rules. And, of
course, ignorance of the Rules is a
big impediment to playing by them.

juniors that the further along
you go in the game, the more respect
you will have for the Rules, " Westmoreland
says. " At its lowest level, I
