As someone who will probably be somewhere near the tail end of the PGA+ or top end of the PGA, I don’t like the idea of bouncing between tours. I’d rather it had gone Web, PGA, Euro then Euro+ in the rankings, but that’s just my preference for Euro. Will players be able to qualify for majors from lower tiers? Will a last place on the PGA+ tour get the same or more WGR ranking points as first on the PGA tour? How will you police people sandbagging to avoid PGA+ I may end up running against the grain, but overall I like the idea. I may never win a trophy but getting to the top tour will be an achievement in itself - but honestly, can we call it something else??? Like maybe the champions league or Nicklaus tour or something? Legends Tour Masters Tour Anything is better than PGA+. |

This is probably where I'll end up. Every few weeks have 2-3 strikes and make a cut, so yeah I have a feeling I'm going to be in the same boat as you, bouncing between two tours or always right at the bottom of the + tour with an occasional week where I might make a decent showing. |

Also, having digested this a bit more, how come Euro and PGA still can't be equal with a choice of which to join? You could still have your 'hottest players' in the Seve Tour (see what I did there!), relegation from that puts you back in your chosen tour. Web still acts as the semi pro tour under that. Why does the Euro Tour have to become essentially the 3rd division?

Here is a scenario I can see happening. After a bit you have 10-20 players who have struck out and are now in the PGA but no players with 200 points to move up. Is that possible? Suddenly you have a PGA+ with 35 players or so.

Not a fan of the PGA + name but in theory I like the direction of tgc tours. Gives many more players a chance at some glory.
Edit.... Just looked at top 40 hottest outside wgr top 10 I need to bomb some rounds....

Yeah, this is going to be received like a wet blanket! I like the idea of the top guys competing against each other, but not sure that needs to happen every single week. With the lack of cross-over it was going to be more a rarity I guess. Bottom part of that top tour is going to be moving around a lot. i couldn't care less what the names are. The Euro circle-j*$k group is going throw a tantrum over this. |
