After looking at the list of pdga's disciplinary actions, something struck me as odd. There are 9 members listed as being disciplined because of "outstanding fees", 8 of whom are from the US. The player from Belgium with the same infraction got only a (minimum) 1 month suspension whereas all the others were no less than 3 months (minimum).

Why is the penalty less for an overseas player?

Yea, and why is it ALWAYS the Belgians who get the breaks???

Well, those guys do know how to make some really good beer!

Could be due to the exchange rate...

Yeah, every one knows that Americans are three times more efficient with respect to time than the Europeans.

i think you have that exchange backwards
