Average score m/w: 77/78. Driving distance m/w: 265/225 yards. 

We have to be honest: you're probably going to miss the cut. If your dream is to become a pro golfer, you might have to wake up. Sorry.

Average score m/w: 75/76. Driving distance m/w: 270/230 yards. 

You could always start out at the amateur level and work towards professional status. Just don't bet on a golf career.

Average score m/w: 73/74. Driving distance m/w: 280/240 yards. 

There are a number of professional tours out there outside of the American PGA and LPGA tours. Men can explore the European or Australasia PGA tours. Women can try the Ladies European, Australian Ladies, or Ladies Asian Golf tours. It's time to think globally.

Average score m/w: 72/73. Driving distance m/w: 290/250 yards. 

Your distance is about average for the PGA/LPGA game, but your average score isn't great. You should hone your skills at a low-level professional tour first. Then, gun for the top.

Average score m/w: 71/72. Driving distance m/w: 300/260 yards. 

You shoot par for the course (literally). Your scores say you're ready for the PGA/LPGA tour. Be careful, though. At this level, there's enough pressure to crush a golf ball.

Ever hear the phrase, "one in a million"? Well, you'll need to be exactly that if you want to go pro. Think about the best high school athlete in your district of 10 high schools. The absolute Big Man in the area. He gets headhunted so hard by colleges that he can barely spare time for his school work, let alone friends. Then, he gets into college and is a total all star there...of the 12 best all stars on his team that year. Well, guess, what? Only one of those guys will be a pro in five years...if this is a top class of athletes out of the the past several years. 

So, even if you're in the 95th percentile of all NCAA athletes in your sport, you've still got a snowball's chance in a microwave of going pro. Not to mention actually mattering at all. More than likely, you'll still be struggling to eke out a living on the bench for a year or stuck on a farm team until you're forced to look for other work. We could bludgeon you with more data and stats, but as you dream about success, just make sure you're hedging your bets.

In other words: enjoy that "alternative" career, Shmooper. (#realtalk)
