Loss of Amateur Status if participating in the Asian Senoir PGA TOur's PRO Qualifying School
Amateur golfers may enter and play in the PRO Qualifying tournament(s) without forfeiture of their amateur status.
At future AST events the successful Amateur golfers may enter and play in the various Asian Senior Master professional tournament(s) as an AST - Professional without forfeiture of their amateur status, provided in advance and in writing they waive their right to any prize money on offer at the event.
This is done by completing and signing the ASM Prize Money waiver form when entering an ASM tournament.
Amateur golfers who fail to do so are in breach of the rules of Amateur Status. Otherwise, the breach occurs when having qualified, they accept an offer of, or apply for, AST membership.
Please ask for the Prize money waiver form obtainable from the Tournament Directors Office.
Successful amateur participants in the PRO Qualifying tournament who may wish to retain their Amateur Status will be made Honourary Pro - Amateur Members of the AST.
Reinstatement to Amateur Status can be applied for via your Country - County - State Golf Association. A period awaiting reinstatement of between 3 and 24 months can apply, depending on the circumstances.
