Far Hills, N.J. – The United States Golf Association announced revisions to the Rules of Golf, placing new restrictions on the cross sectional area & edge sharpness of golf club grooves.

The rules control the cross sectional area of grooves on all clubs, with the exception of drivers & putters, & limit groove edge sharpness on clubs with lofts equal to or greater than 25 degrees (generally a standard 5-iron & above).

The rules apply to clubs manufactured after Jan. 1, 2010, the same year that the USGA will enforce the new regulations through a condition of competition for the U.S. Open, U.S. Women’s Open & U.S. Senior Open & each of their qualifying events. All USGA amateur championships will apply the new regulations through the condition of competition, after Jan. 1, 2014.
