The system is a little complicated, but it accounts for a guy's full body of work and not a snapshot after a handful of good performances. It's actually a really good system IMO.

I don't like the WGR system. If you don't play in lets say a month, you drop 20 spots, two months 40. What about the guys who are grinding and making cuts, regardless of what tour, this does not make sense. Right now Tiger is not the 17th best golfer in the world. Play and prove it.

What makes the system awful is how points are allocated. Lee Westwood got a ton of points winning in Singapore or somewhere, more points than the tour stop that week. Westwood was the only player in the top 30 in the world in the field, and he was paid an appearance fee.
