Liz Carl: USGA Rules Guru
Carl was recently promoted
to manager of competitions for
the Curtis Cup in St. Louis, Mo.,
and the U.S. Women's Amateur
Championship on Long Island. At
the former she serves as captain
for the practice sessions, matches
and all team logistics. At the latter
her duties fall mainly outside
the ropes.
Although she claims to have
moved up to the forward tees, she
remains no less competitive than
during her prep and college days.
She won the 2013 NJSGA's Mixed Pinehurst
Championship with co-worker Adam
Karnish, both playing out of the Moggy
Brook Golf Club, a club without real estate
given the mythical moniker for the
USGA headquarters campus in Far Hills.
" I always dreamed of working in the
game, " she explains, adding that opportunities
abound through state and regional
golf associations, local PGA sections, golf
facilities, the First Tee chapters, the professional
tours and national golf organizations
like the USGA.
This Warrior has got game both inside
and outside the ropes.
" I always
dreamed of
working in the
