The Heritage Classic Foundation Rankings
Points are awarded based on
overall finish regardless of age group. Competitors playing from the
back set of boys tees & girls tees are considered to be competing for
the overall title. All ties are split equally. For tournaments to
be ranked the following must be in effect: At least 40 boys, 10 girls must
compete in their bracket from their respective set of back tees. Smaller fields
( girls events with
less than 40 players) will only award 50% of the field. Rankings are on a
twelve month rotation. Last year’s results are deleted when the new
results are entered.
Players are awarded points
using the following point system: 1st-25, 2nd-20, 3rd-16, 4th-13,
5th-10, Top 10-5 and Top 20-3. Each tournament is weighted based on
its importance and strength of field. In general, one day tournaments
are category 1, regular events - 2, strong non-title events - 3 - 6
and titles - 7-10. You can compute the points for a finish by
multiplying the finish points by the tournament weight. Example:
Johnny finishes third in a category four tournament he will receive 64
points.
All Local qualifiers for USGA, PGA and national events would
rank top 20 and ties. Those qualifying would receive 25 points X
weight and alternates would receive 16 points X weight of event. 50
bonus points would be available to medalist in stroke play and those
that make it to match play in a National match play event.
The rankings are mailed
monthly to media, college coaches and clubs.
