LPGA and Symetra Tour pros can draw off future earnings in a new cash-advancement program while the game is shut down by the coronavirus pandemic.
Players received the offer on Friday.
“There’s a cash advance opportunity for players if they’re interested in taking it,” LPGA commissioner Mike Whan said.
Whan did not provide details of the offer, but a source familiar with the program said it is based on where players fall on the LPGA priority category list, with players ranking among the top 15 categories having the most access, with an ability to request an advance topping out in the “mid-five figure range.
