The PGA will be endorsing the PPM mouthpiece, and Makkar expects to have this deal completed by August, 2010. This deal was to have been completed in May of 2010, however, there was a glitch which is now working in their favor.

They rejected the PPM, because the USGA, has determined that PPM would be a direct advantage to golfers who use this product on the PGA tour. How about that for validity!
|
The PPM had to be approved by the USGA, a body which allows devices to be approved, as long as it is not a direct advantage to PGA players on the tour, according to their ruling sec, 14.3. The USGA has made an exception to the PPM, that in order for a golfer to use it on the PGA tour, that they will need a written diagnosis from a dentist that the golfer has TMJ issues. This is a huge milestone for Makkar. Now a golfer that wants to use it on the tour has to see a dentist first for a diagnosis. So now because of this exception , the PGA will now endorse the PPM.

The Saints achieved a milestone when they captured the NFC title, a first in their franchise’s history, only to journey to the greatest showdown of their careers and end it with the most spectacular triumph.
