LPGA introduces stricter slow-play penalties following Charley Hull and Nelly Korda's criticism

After repeated complaints from LPGA stars like Charley Hull and Nelly Korda, the Tour took stern measures on slow play. A recently circulated memo outlines stricter penalties, including stroke penalties and increased fines for those failing to maintain pace.

Under the revised policy, a one-stroke penalty will now be enforced for players exceeding their allocated time by 6-15 seconds, while those going past 16 seconds or more will face a two-stroke penalty. In addition, the 10-second allowance for the first player to hit has been changed, with par-4s and 5s no longer getting extra time, except for reachable par-4s. These changes are going to come into effect from March 27 at the Ford Championship.

Not long ago, after her third round at The Annika in November 2024, Hull had raised her voice about slow play.

"I’m quite ruthless, but I said, listen, if you get three bad timings, every time it’s a two-shot penalty. If you have three of them, you lose your Tour card instantly, go back to Q-School. I’m sure that would hurry a lot of people up and they won’t want to lose their Tour card. That would kill the slow play, but they would never do that," Charley Hull was quoted as saying MSN.

Moreover, slow play has been a long-standing issue on the LPGA and PGA tours. During the 2023 Amundi Evian Championship, Carlota Ciganda was disqualified after refusing to accept a two-stroke penalty for slow play.

In addition, PGA Tour US Open winner Lucas Glover has suggested banning aimpoints, while Byeong Hun AN has supported shot penalties. With the LPGA changing its laws, players will have to make adjustments.
