Official World Golf Rankings

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre.

Le Official World Golf Rankings est un système permettant de classer le niveau de performance des golfeurs professionnels au niveau mondial. Le classement a été lancé en 1986 et a été approuvé par les "Quatre Majeurs" et les six circuits professionnels qui forment la Fédération Internationale PGA Tours, à savoir le PGA Tour, l'European Tour, l'Asian Tour, le PGA Tour of Australasia, le Japan Golf Tour, et le Sunshine Tour. Des points sont également attribués pour les premières places Points des Canadian Tour, Nationwide Tour et Challenge Tour.

[modifier] Notes and références

↑ The Players Championship is the premier event that is sanctioned only by the PGA Tour. The four major championships are co-sanctioned by the PGA Tour and have higher points allocations than The Players Championship.
↑ The BMW PGA Championship (which is historically the British PGA Championship) is the leading event that is sanctioned by the European Tour only. The four major championships and the three individual World Golf Championships events are co-sanctioned by the European Tour and have higher ranking point allocations than the BMW PGA Championship.
↑ The Japan Open is the leading event that is sanctioned by the Japanese Tour only. The four major championships and the three individual World Golf Championships events are co-sanctioned by the Japan Golf Tour and have higher ranking point allocations than the Japan Open
↑ The Volvo Masters of Asia is the Asian Tour championship and is designated as the tour's premier event for ranking purposes, but the tour's richest sole sanctioned event, the Singapore Open, and several events that are co-sanctioned with the European Tour, offer more ranking points based on strength of field co-efficient.
