Subject: Is a wrist brace allowed in competition?
|
I think lately I have been overdoing it at work. My index and middle fingers and wrist of my right hand were very swollen and immobile. The dor said it was a combination of gout and the early symptoms of carpal tunnel. I've taken 3 weeks off of golf, but my wrist is still very week and sore. I've taken to wearing a glove like support that compresses the hand and strengthens the wrist. So would this be illegal if I say used it at RSG OH, if I can make it of course.

Wrists are important at RSG-OH primarily because drinking beer with a straw is not ideal. One fully-functioning wrist should be sufficient.
