This is a terrible idea. So just the long hitters get penalized?
Tournament Golf should be a game of not just power, but finesse & skill. The best in the world should have to be able to work the ball in each direction and endure harsh penalties for missing the fairway.
Shooting 22 under every week doesn't help the game's growth IMO.

No but 4 straight weeks of playoff golf does. On Sunday the score doesn't matter just the margin of victory from an entertainment standpoint. Golfers love to see the struggle but your marginal fan is going to want to see the long ball and insane putting skill.

Tournament golf is about getting the ball into the hole in less strokes than the field. Nothing more, nothing less. You can talk about distance all you want but the reason DeChambeau was at -27 was that he was #2 in the field in putting for the week. Cantlay was the only guy to out putt him for the week.
