“IF WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A WORLD TOUR, WHAT SHOULD IT LOOK LIKE?”

It comes up a lot. Or at least now and then. Talk of a “world Tour” that is.

And the latest incarnation is the Premier Golf League that surfaced – at least publicly – only recently. All of which got me thinking. If we are going to have a world Tour, what should it look like?

Smaller fields are a good idea. But 48, as proposed by the PGL, might be a bit too small. I’m coming at this from the premise that it would be better if more of the world saw more of the world’s best players more often. So we need more than 48 participants. And it would further elevate the game if those players were competing over the best courses more often.

So I would give every player on my Tour a contract based on where they finished on my league
