31 days ago I was ranked 100th WGR. I'm now 30th. Big thanks again to Brionne for the practice games and forcing me to up mine to compete. Also thanks to Ninja who routinely has to kick my ass by 7-8 strokes to put me back in my place in reality.

I am in a tie at number 64. Are we both in? I would say probably only cause there are some folks in the top 64 who can't/won't play.. but it will be interesting to see how they do tie breakers.. I do not envy the person having to play Brionne or Bradly tho

That's actually pretty unbelievable. I think they are going to have to find a way to split us to make it 64
I beg of Admin don't do it on stats (I haven't looked at who would be better on which states) let us between the 2 of us play a one off preliminary round on a course of your choice this week. We have a whole week to both play the 1 additional round and you can still set the brackets up.
That is if my tie mate is up for this also? We may even be able to play it same time and twitch it?!

Im willing to say atleast 5-8 people in top 64 wont even play. This is not fair to others who now have to play a tourney with a much less prize pool. I havent got to play in none of the big events this whole year cause im still new. Im just getting the short hand of the stick here always. Im 68th in WGR and 36th on the money list. I havent came in 68th in a tourney all year smh.

So if you are averaging about 34th place on the PGA Tour that would make sense for an overall WGR of 68. Hope that makes sense.

Ohh so euro tour is getting same points as PGA? That doesnt seem fair. I think the best (only in my head, nobody else's) way to put this is: Each tournament has different players in it, some even crossover from week to week. So the amount of WGR points you get in a week is determined by the strength of field in that one tournament you play in. Place well in a tournament that has many top players (like a major, for instance) and you will gain more WGR points as opposed to any standard tournament where you might be playing guys with an average lower WGR. But I think that most weeks, the average strength of field is close to even between the 2 tours, that is why if you are averaging 34th in PGA Tour, that means that the top 30 players in the Euro Tour are going to (generally) have a better WGR than you.

I would do a one round playoff for number 64. That would be fun and stressful
