Notes:The Official World Golf Ranking which is endorsed by the four MajorChampionships and the six professional tours which make up the InternationalFederation of PGA Tours is issued every Monday following completion of theprevious week's tournaments from around the world. The official events fromthe six professional tours together with the Canadian Nationwide and EuropeanChallenge Tours are all taken into account and points are awarded according tothe players finishing positions and are generally related to the strength ofthe field based on the number and ranking of the Top-200 World Ranked playersand the Top-30 of the Home Tour players in the respective tournaments (Event"Ratings"). However the four Major Championships are rated separately toreflect the higher quality of the events together with the PlayersChampionship in the United States. In addition the BMW Championship inEurope the Australian Japan and South African Open Championships and theFlagship events on the Asian and Nationwide Tours are allocated higher minimumpoints levels to reflect their status. The World Ranking points for eachplayer are accumulated over a two year "rolling" period with the pointsawarded for each tournament maintained for a 13-week period to placeadditional emphasis on recent performances - ranking points are then reducedin equal decrements for the remaining 91 weeks of the two year Ranking period.Each player is then ranked according to his average points per tournamentwhich is determined by dividing his total number of points by the number oftournaments he has played over that two-year period. There is a minimumdivisor of 40 tournaments over the two year ranking period. The winners of theMasters Tournament the US Open Championship the Open Championship and thePGA Championship are awarded 100 points (60 points for 2nd place 40 for 3rd30 for 4th down to 1.50 points for a player completing the final round) andthe winner of the Players Championship is awarded 80 points (points areawarded down to 1.20 points for 60th place and ties). The BMW Championship hasa minimum 64 points for the winner (points to 56th place). Minimum pointslevels for the winners of official Tour events have been set at 6 points forthe Canadian Tour (points to 6th place) 12 points for the European ChallengeTour (points to 14th place) 14 points for the Asian Sunshine and NationwideTours (points to 17th place) 16 points for Australasian and Japanese Tours(points to 19th place) and 24 points for European and the United States Tours(points to 27th place). In addition the Open Championships of Australia Japanand South Africa have a minimum of 32 points for the winner (points to 37thplace) and the Flagship events on the Asian and Nationwide Tours have aminimum of 20 points for the winner (points to 22nd place). In the cases ofco-sanctioned Tour events the minimum points levels are determined using the"average" of the minimum Tour ranking points from each Tour (rounded up tonearest whole number). Points are reduced by 25% for tournaments curtailed to36 holes because of inclement weather or other reasons.
