Why not award the winner at the end of the year then do some sort of playoffs with final 8 making east lake and do match play.
Boomer!
or just give the top 8 a bye week like the nfl
White guy shuffle for the dance move
Sneaky cut some nicknames?
After our round on Labor Day a friend came up with what I think is a great idea. The start is staggered by how many wins they have during the season. Scottie would start -6, Dunlap MacIntyre, Matusyama, McIlroy & Schauffele -2, etc.
Here’s an idea I would personally really enjoy for a Tour Championship format:
-Top 4 guys in the fed ex cup going into the finals get a bye and are seeded 1-4 for quarter finals on Saturday. This rewards the top players for their success without getting into awkward stroke advantages. It also adds drama for the first two events since those 4 spots have such significance. They also get to rest up.. if that makes a difference.
-Thursday – Friday – remaining top 26 guys play 36 holes of stroke play. Top 4 guys get in to the 5-8 seeds for Saturday. This creates all sort of drama focusing on the final four spots with matchup and playoff scenarios for those spots aplenty.
-Saturday is the match play day. Guys are all seeded 1-8. 18 holes to decide who gets into the final championship on Sunday. Cool underdog stories are available here if a later bloomer gets into the playoffs and then grabs a bottom seed. Match is amazing.
-Sunday is the final four for the championship. To avoid any further luck with match play, I think a final foursome stroke play would be awesome. Final four guys in a group adds extra drama. I think 18 holes makes sense. Everyone starts on an even playing field. Sure to create more drama and last final stretch heroics versus the current format.
I think that checks a lot of boxes in terms of entertainment while being easier to follow and rewarding the best players without being gimmicky. Thoughts?
I am 58 golf addict for 30 years. I haven’t watched golf channel since 2015. Unless they have golf tournament. They are unwatchable.
Why is it when a player is good to make the PGA tour they struggle with their swing and they want to change it. Just play golf. Be like Jack.
Brad joins Good Good, so that means he’s also a holy roller/straight edge?

Sleeze nailed the problem with the FedEx cup. I think most golf fans would agree and I really liked the suggestions to fix it.
