What WGT should do with MPC points is ... instead of resetting them monthly ... let them continue to accrue and use them as another calculation for advancing Tiers.
As it stands now .... players who play stroke play are "rewarded" when their "psuedo-average" (it's not really an average) reach certain levels and you play a certain amount of games. Yet by playing just match play .. you can continue to advance levels, have access to the best equipment, and continue to play off the forward tees. i.e. Not a level playing field.
WGT should do is ... use Match Play points as another way to "reward" good play.
Thus - you would advance on an either / or basis ...
An example would be.
- Become an Amateur at 50 points or xx.xx avg after xxx Games
- Become a Pro at 200 points or xx.x avg after xxx games
- Become a Tour Pro at 500 points or xx.x avg after xxx games
- Become a master at 900 points or xx.x avg after xxx games
- Become a tour master at 1,400 points or xx.x avg after xxx games
If you've played enough games to achieve these point levels, you know the courses well enough and are ready to advance regardless of your average.
Just a thought.
