Talking to a Pro is the easy way out, but you're playing golf.....to hell with things coming easy.  Here's a couple of tips you should try before dropping a C-Note on some Club Pro.\nGo to the Range and tee the ball up and stand so to the ball is even with you left heel. (you said it goes to the right so you must be a right handed player, you freak lefties do the opposite) If you aren't doing this already this may be the key.  What's happening is you're not getting the face of the club around on impact and it's hitting at the wrong angle of the club and spinning dramatically wrong.\nIf that doesn't work try changing your grip.  Shift your right hand clock-wise like 30 degrees (like one hour on a watch) or if you inter-lock your fingers or overlap try gripping the club like a baseball bat(No inter-locking and No overlapping and bring your right thumb over).\nI had similar problems and this straightened me out and if all else fails, bite the bullet, hit the ATM and see a Pro.\nGood Luck

Get yourself a ranking/rating within your country and play tournaments. As you work your way up the rankings, you will get the opportunity to participate in bigger tournaments and eventually, as soon as you have at least one ATP or WTA point (obviously depending on whether you're a guy or gal), you will then officially have turned professional and can continue climbing up the world rankings in internationally sanctioned tournaments anywhere.

Easiest way is to do pool play for each activity. When each team is seeded and the tournament for that activity is over, award points for the place they came in. For example, first place wins 10 points, 2nd earns 9 pts., 8th earns 8 pts and so on. Then you total the points in each category (pool, Darts, foosball)., and the team with the most points wins the tournament.

Try to contact the coach of the team. To play, you'll need a nice, expensive set of golf clubs, proper clothing and the know-how of how to play golf. If you aren't perfect to play at college level yet, there are online golf tutorials or you can hire a trainer to help you. Good luck and get a hole in one!!!

For the vast majority of individuals, the only way to join the tour is through the PGA "Q-School".  This is probably the ultimate pressure tournament in most golfer's careers, and assigns positions onto the PGA tour and the Nationwide Tour.\n\nYou may get exemptions based on sponsor's desire to show local talent in occasional tournaments.  This is how Tiger Woods started, incidentally.  He got a 7 tournament exemption when he first started as a pro; he won two of the tournaments, so that eliminated ANY thought of him going to Q school.  But for mere mortals, such as yourself, the link below follows the correct path to professional golf.

You asked about the Players Championship, but you were THINKING about the soon-to-be-played Tour Championship.\n\nI have listed qualifying for both:\n\nA quick answer is that the Tour is made up of the Top 30 money winners and thats it. They do not use an alternate's list.\n\nthe Players Championship\nThe tournament's eligibility criteria are stringent and utilize the PGA TOUR money list and Official World Golf Ranking, as well as offering invitations to major champions, winners of the World Golf Championships and PGA TOUR winners in the past 12 months.\n\nThe result makes THE PLAYERS Championship one of the most sought-after dates in the game. Just ask Montgomerie.\n\nFollowing is a list of the elgibility criteria for THE PLAYERS Championship.\n\n    * Winners of PGA TOUR cosponsored or approved tournaments, whose victories are considered official, since the 2003 PLAYERS Championship.\n    * The top 125 finishers on the 2003 Official PGA TOUR Money List.\n    * PGA TOUR members from the current Tournament Winners category.\n    * Members in the Top-125 Nonmembers category whose official money for the previous year equals or exceeds the amount of official money earned by the player finishing in 125th position on the 2003 Official PGA TOUR Money List.\n    * Winners of THE PLAYERS Championship, Masters Tournament, U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship in the last 10 years (1994-2003). Beginning with the 1998 winners of these events, winners will be eligible for five years.\n    * Winners of the NEC World Series of Golf from 1993-1997.\n    * Winners of THE TOUR Championship in the last three years (2001-2003).\n    * Winners of the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship in the last three years (2002-2004).\n    * Winners of the World Golf Championships-NEC Invitational and World Golf Championships-American Express Championship in the last three years (2001-2003).\n    * Any player(s) not otherwise eligible, among the top 50 leaders from the Official World Golf Ranking through the Bay Hill Invitational.\n    * Any player(s), not otherwise eligible, who are among the top 10 money winners from the 2004 Official PGA TOUR Money List through the Bay Hill Invitational.\n    * To complete a field of 144, those players, not otherwise eligible, from the 2004 Official Money List below 10th position through the Bay Hill Invitational, in order of their positions on the money list.\n    * THE PLAYERS Championship Committee may invite a player(s), not otherwise eligible, who is a current inductee of the World Golf Hall of Fame. Such player(s) would be added to the field.\n\nthe Tour Championship\nTHE TOUR Championship (the capitalisation is official) is the final event of golf's PGA Tour season. Beginning in 1997, the event alternated between Champions Golf Club in Houston, Texas and East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, Georgia; since 2004, East Lake has been the event's permanent home.\n\nThe top 30 money winners on the PGA Tour after the penultimate event qualify for the Championship, which is one of the richest tournaments on the tour. \n\nIt takes place in early November, the week after the comparable event in Europe, the Volvo Masters, which allows players who are members of both the PGA Tour and the European Tour to play in both end of season events. After The Tour Championship, the money list for the season is finalised. There are a number of additional events between The Tour Championship and Christmas which are recognised by the PGA Tour, but prize money won in them is unofficial. Also, because this tournament's field is not as large as other golf tournaments, there are no 2nd Round cuts, as there's simply no need for one(meaning, all 30 players are guaranteed to play all 4 Rounds, and are guaranteed a paycheque, no matter how badly they play).\n\nIn 2007, THE TOUR Championship will move from its November date to a date in mid-September, where it will end a four-tournament "Chase for

Tournament tickets are impossible to get but if you are willing to go to a practice round (Monday thru Wednesday) it's still hard but not impossible. They work it like a lottery. You send in an application form for the next year and they draw out names at random. Maybe you get drawn, maybe you don't. You just keep sending it in year after year and eventually you get lucky. You can get a copy of the entry form at the Master's website or the Augusta National website. At least you get to walk the beautiful coarse and see the players up close.

There is no magical steps to take or secret form to fill out.  You can do it however you want.  You could buy equipment for everyone and then invite people.\n\nProbably it would be easier to find 4 other people who have equipment and already play paintball.  Once they agree to be on the team, then come up with a team name.  \n\nThere it is!!\n\nNow, if you want to enter tournaments (or really play at all), you will need money to buy paint and pay entrance fees.  If you really want to get high-tech, you can pay someone to design a logo and print jerseys.\n\nThe cool part is if you start winning, you have prizes.  These prizes could involve new guns or paint.  Free paint is good for practicing, because then you are more likely to win next time.  And then since you practiced so much, you will probably win the next tournament also.  Kind of an interesting cycle to get into.

Just go down to their offices and sign up -- it's that simple!  You see, not many other people would like to play professional sports, so it's really easy.  Pardon my sarcasm if you're under the age of 12.  But really, the way someone breaks into sports like that is usually by playing that sport in high school, then college, etc. So I would focus on just trying to play baseball as much as possible in little leagues and school. If you're good enough, the path to pro will probably be shown to you by coaches and others.
