The PGA Tour makes some stupid rules, being an organization just to the right of the Gestapo, but it’s making a tournament winner “unofficial” after only 36 holes is the smart thing to do. I’m not sure what the stats are, but I’d say 36-hole leaders go on to win tournaments only a small percentage of the time.
It isn’t like baseball, where the five-inning rule prevails – there’s only two teams. In golf, the odds are drastically higher someone other than the 36-hole leader will eventually win the tournament.
I know, I know, this is one of the dullest blogs I’ve ever done. I’ll be impressed if anyone can come up with a comment
