Decision Summary
The Director initially found the petitioner met only two of the required three evidentiary criteria. On appeal, the AAO disagreed with the Director's assessment of the 'membership in associations' criterion, finding that the petitioner's membership in various PGA Tours did require outstanding achievement. Since the petitioner was found to meet three criteria, the case was remanded for a final merits determination.
