PGA divi question

[DadOfTwo]

Thanks for the answer.

Now, if each golfer nailed his projections exactly would that earn him a 0.00% divi?

In other words no change to his price?

I understood what you said about the match play, but if the above statement is true, you could plug those "divi neutral" results in during match play or a rainout, add in the winnings and get a true divi based solely on winnings for that day.

I'd be willing to play around with it if you are willing to supply me with some of the formula's that you use to figure the divi's.

Fun fun fun!

Thanks again for the response.

that's impossible...it cannot and does not happen

moot point due to above answer

while a few here may have figured out the formula-(and I am FAR from one of them)-the only other person that has that info is Orren.

Fun fun fun!

just an FYI....it IS potentially possible for stocks to earn nearly exactly a 0% divi....but because of the differences in projections and the differences to how much each category effects divis, WHAT a golfer does to 'earn' 0% is not only different for each golfer, but never EXACTLY 0% (our system calculates out to something like 10 decimal points)

...and also because of the differences in projections, it's basically impossible TO hit their projections exactly- noone is projected for, for example, 4 birdies per round....3.899 maybe, 4.015 maybe...but not 4 exactly. And if someone happens to be on birdies, guaranteed they don't have projections hitting round numbers all the way down the line.

Remember, too...while match plays are sanctioned by the PGA, they're not (at least I don't believe they are) officially considered tour events re points, etc.

Dad...put your glasses on (I know... )

Under your quote you should see that I toasted you with a beer.
