Q School is what you compete in before you can be on the PGA tour. You have to shoot a certain score and then you go to the next stage if you get passed the first stage. If you pass the second stage you go on to the final stage. Some people like Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson don't have to go to Q school if you are that good and can play right out of college. Everyone has Q school stories if they'e been.

In Q School if you play bad in a couple of rounds you still can have a shot at getting your PGA tour card. You just need to shoot a few low rounds to get inside the number. Brad Klapprott was in the final stage of Q School going into one of the lasts rounds when his back gave out. He didn’t want to with draw from the tournament because he wouldn’t even have full status on the Nationwide tour. So he finished playing.

Players that compete in Q school multiple times give themselves a few chances to qualify for the PGA tour and if they don’t they get a different job. Players will do something that they don’t know if they have to take a penalty or not. They don’t ask a rules official for a ruling because they don’t want to hold up play and after they sign their scorecard they ask. Then they get disqualified for an incorrect score.
