Hard to believe a WGC event took place last weekend... and the PGA Tour want to push for more events in Asia :mad:

Anyway - saw this on twitter this morning. Interesting.

I was just wondering about the final rankings in the Race to Dubai for the current season. The TV coverage of the Portuguese Masters paid a lot of attention to the struggle to hold onto your membership by finishing in the top 111. David Howell claimed the last spot by €100 ahead of Graeme Storm.

Five of the field in this week's WGC event are members of the European Tour who are ranked below 111th in the Race to Dubai. One of these has only plated in 2 tournaments and presumably would not be eligible for a card unless he wins. But Dean Burmeister who is currently ranked 141st and is in a tie for 11th after 36 holes will move ahead of Howell if he finishes in the top 17 in this week's event. Jordan Zunic who is currently ranked 151st is currently tied 49th and needs to finish in the top 11 to move ahead of Howell.

While this is a bit more of an add, it's possible either or both could move ahead of Howell and possibly also Daniel Im, who is currently in 110th position. If this happens, will Howell and Im lose their cards? (Howell will still have a card as he is in the top 40 in career earnings, but it would be a lower ranked card).

Can anyone confirm the position in this regard?

Harrington's ball striking looks very nice indeed today. Joint leader at -17 now.

Great news... I'm totally up for it now. Who can I give my €175 to?

Rather than playing at a venue where he has won before. Right.

Spend the weekend with a drug using cheat - seems like a much better idea.

Settle will you, Shane is speaking at 09.00 tomorrow morning, Lance at 18.00, their paths may or may not even cross.

It is clear they are focusing on a web summit type crowd with the prices.

Yeah, huge price...but similar to the Rotella/Harrington cost, no?

Seem to be 31 speakers listed, but only 3 of any note. Can't understand why anyone would pay €175 to attend this, let alone €475 for premium seats or €775 for a VIP package.

The mind boggles! Sounds like a guaranteed way of losing money for whoever's promoting it.

It is surprising hes not playing Portugal as hes sliding a bit in the OWGR.
But hey who are we to question someones schedule, he does have a hectic run up to xmas and some huge events so thats likely where the focus lies.

Funny that you of all people mention keyboard warriors. And yes, since this is a forum which embraces all opinions on golf, my opinion is that he should have been in Portugal.

No, effectively there would be 111 cards handed out and he keeps his ranking (currently 62nd). i.e. he would have higher chance of getting into events than the likes of Paul Dunne

The 110 cards are reserved for full members of the tour while Lingmerth is only an affiliate member. However finishing in the top 110 also earns him a card for next season if he takes up full membership

My understanding of affiliate membership is that he has no european tour eligibility for events this season but he can still get into tournaments through invites and his high world ranking.

so he could take his place/card and therefore it would only by 110 places and 111th wont get in after all?

Interesting the top 111 qualify. I'm not sure what the craic with Lingmerth is, anyone know?
From an Irish point of view only Harrington and Dunne close to the mark in 97th & 102nd respectively. Clarke in 168th. Doesn't matter though for Clarke & Harrington as they are both in Category 1. Dunne looks safe enough , but would be nice if he could make a few bob his week and move up a few places... it could be the difference between getting into some tournaments next year and sitting on the sidelines looking in.

No. The grandstand is not part of the course.
