professional golfer
Paid links competitor
A professional golfer is someone who plays golf as their occupation rather than as a hobby, earning money through tournament winnings, sponsorships, and endorsements.
Professional golfers compete on organized tours like the PGA Tour or LPGA Tour, where they must qualify and maintain their playing status through performance.
The term distinguishes those who play for compensation from amateur golfers, who compete without pay.
