They should use a ranking system like ours!

The Ladies Profession Golf Association decided they needed a season long points rating system. The only way to be sure they got the "Big Names", who do not play very often, in the "Playoffs" was to have a highly weighted points system and use selective event winners. This system is only for the "Big Names" and does not consider , nor is it fair, to all the players. It is also very complicated. Way to hard for the fans to figure out.

We prefer our own rating system. We will use the all the 2006 events and Call it the:

Gold Cup Playoff Points system.

We modified their points system to sort for the players in the playoffs.

The system will also need to give greater importance for wining. and placing second. Therefore we simply used our purse distribution formula.
1.. The points at any position is determined by dividing the first place point value by the players position.
2. Except second and third place. Second is 60%.of first and  third is 40% of first . This makes it easy for the fans to calculate. 1-5 are 100%, 60%, 40%, 25%, 20% of first place and so on down.
All the "Big Names" came to the top.

We divided the Cup events into five groups.

Group 1.
     The U. S. Women's Open Championship
Croup 2.
     Kraft Nabisco Championship
     McDonald's LPGA Championship
     Weetabix Women's British Open
Group 3.
     Points Events 
Group 4.
     Winner Events (2 million +  purse in 2007)
Group 5.
     Global Events ( International events in 2007)Masters

Point values for first place.
     Group 1.  400 points
     Group 2.  350 points
     Group 3.  300 points
     Group 4.  250 points
     Group 5.  200 points
See complete distribution list

We are giving those players that get an automatic entry into the playoffs a 2000 point bonus. Since each automatic entry reduces the number of players who get in on points we had to have a way of sorting the list to show the top 16.
 This works great!

The "Playoff" Points rating list varies in number of  players and will load slowly. 2006, 2007.
