PGA Tour's 'Player Impact Programme' (PIP).

Post by dtaai-maai »

"Tiger Woods pipped Rory McIlroy to the $15m (£12.6m) prize for generating the most media interest this year"

But not to worry, McIlroy got $12m for coming second... :roll:
The PIP was designed to reward players who generate the most interest in the PGA Tour, with metrics such as Google searches, news article mentions and social media reach and engagement taken into account.
