The single most important driver of your Net Worth is your physical ability to play golf. If you are hurt or sick and cannot play for an extended period, this has significant impact on your earnings. Not only does it impact your on-course earnings, but it can affect your endorsement deals as well. So why is disability insurance one of the most overlooked parts of players’ financial structures?
The Tour has a disability policy for players with certain exempt status. It is meant to help if you get hurt/sick, but not cover everything. It is important to know what you get as a benefit and when you can receive it if you were to be eligible. Chances are what the Tour supplies, (PGA or Korn Ferry) is not going to be enough to cover what you need. In this podcast we will discuss the unique disability needs of professional golfers and what you can do about it.
