Why you so concern abt other players classifications…. Ya a td?…. Or ya scared to have competition?.. besides no one afrom the ddga really answers to anyone here seems to me they are selective to answer to a few people only lol

Adam M. Jones Jun 6, 2022 Even though Clayton is listed as a Pro his rating is low enough to still compete in MA1. Anyone under 970 that is a registered Pro can still compete in MA1 except for Majors.

Ah I see. It just that none of us in MA1 played in open except for Clayton. Is that fair competition? Maybe it’s more of Clayton is scared of some competition in open? Plus some players in MA1 have higher rating than I do and I have no issue cuz they never played open. Just being devil advocate, why would you want to play MA1 if you already played in open? It’s like joining weaker division. It’s like I’m playing for recreational even thou my rating allows me to join recreational.

Bryan Goyette Jun 6, 2022 I’m not trying to insulting anyone. It just that I was puzzled by professional player playing for MA1.

Brock Beeney Jun 6, 2022 Ok my bad you have a point there … I read that wrong .. my apologies….

Bryan Goyette Jun 6, 2022 It’s all good!

Hi Bryan, I understand why you are wondering about that. PDGA rules if I accepted cash this year and my rating is below 970, I can play in amateur division but I can't play usadgc and world am which I don't care. I signed up for amateur class this year until I played DEO22 as open and I decided to accept cash because I can use it to cover KY22. I mean, I already been in advance before I accepted cash recently. I hope it helps you to understand what's going on.

Hi Clayton, thanks for replying. I understand where you are from. It just that you played Open then MA1 at DCO22 which you demolished. Then you were comfortable enough to play open again and won big bucks lol. I don’t want to beat up a dead horse. I already said my part from earlier comment. Do I like it? No. However it is legal and it is your rights to decide which division to play. I thought at first once you accepted cash, you just can’t go back to amateur but Adam Jones explained that it is ok to do that under PDGA rules so I have to respect that.

Allen Brokaw Jun 12, 2022 Clayton playing AM1?? Oh man there goes my chance.
