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 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!
