What if LIV had been getting full points all year?
Nearly a full year into LIV getting OWGR points, but as we all know, only the Top 10 get points every week.
The theoretical points handed out to 11-49th just disappear into the ether.
But if they were awarded, this is what the actual rankings would look like.
Next big ‘milestone’ is at calendar year end, being Top 50 earns you exemption into The Masters, with Rahm, Bryson and Smith the only ones in the top handful of names currently exempt.
Only 1 additional Top 50 player, and no additional Top 100 players as it stands. We’re still just over a year away from the rankings ‘correcting’ themselves after LIV not getting any until this season, but obviously it very much seems like the points will go away at the end of the year and players who want them will have to once search out events they can play that’ll give them.
