2023 PPLC Player of the Year Point Allocations

 

 

The fine print:

 

• Point Allocations

  • Modeled on the FedEx Cup: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_point_distributions_of_the_FedEx_Cup  

  • Gross places are awarded slightly more points to recognize the achievement - using the FedEx Cup Designated Event point allocation for gross places. 

  • Both flights of the Match Play Tournament are awarded higher point totals, given the prestige of winning a multi-round tournament.

  • A player is awarded the higher of the points available from their net or gross finish. 

 

• Ties

  • Ties are broken using the USGA's tie breaking procedure:

    • Best score over the last 9 holes

    • Best score over the last 6 holes

    • Best score over the last 3 holes

    • Best score over the last 1 hole

 

• Participation Points

  • Participation points are awarded to all players who do not place.

  • Players who place only earn the points for their finishing position. Third place in a net flight earns 300 points, not 350 points. 

 

• Individual Event Flights

  • The top five gross finishers will be awarded points in all individual events.

  • No more than 20% of each net flight will be awarded points, up to five places. 

    • If a flight has 20 players, only four players will be awarded points. 

 

• Team Events

  • Each member of the team will split the points. For example, each member of the 1st place net team will earn 250 points. 

  • The top 10 teams in each flight will be awarded points.  

 

• Divisions are set by handicap:

  • Championship: under 10.0 index

  • Presidio: 10.0 - 19.9 index

  • Cypress: 20.0 and over index

 

• The Masters Par 3 tournament and 9 hole mixers will not count toward the Player of the Year competition.
