The U.S. Golf Association and R and A will hold a teleconference Wednesday in which it is expected they will announce whether there will be a ban on anchored putters.
Each of the leaders from golf’s governing bodies will be on the 8:30 a.m. ET call: USGA executive director Mike Davis, R and A chief executive Peter Dawson, USGA senior director of rules Thomas Pagel and R and A executive director of rules and equipment standards David Rickman.
Anchoring has become one of the hot-button issues in the sport, after three of the past five major winners used a putter that was affixed to a part of the body.
