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.
