Can any person file a complaint regarding the Code of Ethics?

Any person can file a complaint regarding the Code of Ethics because the PGA aims to uphold the integrity and professionalism within the game of golf. This open channel for complaints is designed to ensure accountability and allows anyone—players, golf enthusiasts, or the general public—to voice their concerns about any conduct they believe is in violation of the Code of Ethics. This inclusivity is essential for maintaining standards and fostering trust in the golf community, as it encourages vigilance and engagement from all stakeholders, not just those who are members of the PGA.

The other options limit the ability to file a complaint to specific groups, which would not align with the PGA's commitment to ethics and transparency in the sport.
