Post from W6 thread; important change for the tour....
WigerToods2010:
Re 'feedback' : My only gripe is regards the points distribution
after the cut. I think ALL players making the cut should have been
awarded a minimum 'bonus' for doing so.
Highly unlikely I'll win an event to threaten the better players but
it's a tad frustrating to finish in 31st place and 'earn' the same
amount of points as someone that doesn't even complete rounds 1 and/or 2
or fails to take part at all in any given weekly event.
Following
my round with Johnny, I can see this POV is a very good point and we
can make an adjustment to improve the tour scoring based on this point.
Going forward all players who make the cut will receive tour
qualification points (this will be back-dated to previous events). The
following will be applicable:
Top 30 = same as present but +10 points to all players
31 - 45 (+ties) = +10 points
45 - 60 (+ties) = +5 points
This
will give everyone a further reason to play over the weekend and to aim
to score as well as possible. I can see the point that someone who only
just makes the cut isn't really playing for much. This change will push
everyone to try harder to get their final round played.
Thanks
for this feedback Johnny. Excellent point made and I'm pleased to be
able to make a change which I think will be good for the tour going
forward.
