DSQ stands for various terms. Discover the full forms, meanings, and possible interpretations of DSQ across different fields and industries.
Disqualified (DSQ) is a term used in golf and disc golf when a player is removed from competition due to a rules violation. A DSQ ruling can occur for several reasons, including:
- Failure to sign the scorecard (in professional golf events).
- Using non-conforming equipment or violating club rules.
- Breaking competition guidelines (such as improper ball drops or rule infractions).
- Serious breaches of etiquette or sportsmanship, leading to disqualification.
In golf tournaments, the governing bodies (USGA, R&A, PGA Tour) enforce strict DSQ rules to maintain fair play. In disc golf, the PDGA (Professional Disc Golf Association) regulates DSQ scenarios, including time violations or incorrect play sequences.
