ABOUT THE TOUR
The R2TC Golf Tour features a dynamic points system that adds excitement and competitiveness to each tournament, similar to the FedEx Cup points system. Here's a detailed breakdown of how our points system works:
-
Tournament Points:
-
Normal Open Tournaments: Winning a normal Open tournament earns you a substantial 1000 points. This is the pinnacle achievement, showcasing exceptional performance and consistency.
-
Closest to the Pin: A player who achieves the closest-to-the-pin accolade is awarded 100 points. This category highlights precision and accuracy in approach shots.
-
Longest Drive: The player with the longest drive in a tournament receives 200 points, recognizing their remarkable power off the tee.
-
-
Tour Championship and Mid-Year Away Tournament:
-
During the Tour Championship and the mid-year away tournament, all points are doubled. This means that winning a normal Open tournament during these prestigious events would grant you 2000 points instead of 1000, making each stroke and decision even more critical.
-
-
Ranking Points:
-
Every tournament on the R2TC Golf Tour offers ranking points to participants. The number of ranking points awarded is determined by a player's performance in the event.
-
The exact calculation of ranking points is based on various factors, including tournament placement and overall score.
-
The higher a player finishes in a tournament, the more ranking points they will earn. Consistency throughout the year is rewarded, as each tournament contributes to a player's total ranking points.
-
-
Tour Champion:
-
The Tour Champion is the player who accumulates the most ranking points over the course of the year.
-
As the ultimate goal for every participant, the Tour Champion title represents excellence, skill, and determination.
-
Whether you have a handicap of plus 6 or 54, every player has an equal opportunity to claim the coveted Tour Champion crown.
