Glen Day had been the last player to receive a stroke penalty on Tour at the 1995 Honda Classic.Earlier this season, Monahan didnt appear to be overly concerned with pace of play, but on Tuesday he indicated that the Tour is taking a more proactive role.

It's something that we take very seriously, he said. If you go back over the last couple of years, we have produced our ShotLink dashboard, which our rules officials are accessing, our rules officials can now see how our players are performing relative to time par, how they're performing relative to everybody else out on the golf course, how much time it's taking to execute their shots. We're sharing that information with our players. They're benefiting from that.
Monahan added that the tour is in a "comprehensive review" of all of its pace-of-play policies and that it's a topic that is being discussed by the Player Advisory Council as well.
