Show QUESTION: As an amateur golfer I travel thoughout the state playing in tournaments. My expenses are large and create quite a financial drain. Can I deduct any of the expenses, such as meals and lodging, on my tax return? ANSWER: None of your expenses are deductible since you have no income from golfing. Hobby expenses are deductible only if income is received from those hobbies. If you hail won money in the tournaments, your expenses would be deductible as itemized deductions to the extent of your winnings. |
