No surprise that Tiger won but the optics of this new award is just so bad.
The net worth of the first 3 players is about 1.4 BILLION ...Yea Billion.

You don't win this award for building a children's hospital.
You don't get this award for doing a single thing on a gold course.

You just get it for being popular .... it just seems so stupid to me.

Some are saying that the tour needed a way to kick back money to the players because of the new Saudi backed tour.

i just know the whole thing is ridiculous




Here's a look at the entire top 10.

1. Tiger Woods: $8M
2. Phil Mickelson: $6M
3. Rory McIlroy: $3.5M
4. Jordan Spieth: $3.5M
5. Bryson DeChambeau: $3.5M
6. Justin Thomas: $3.5M
7. Dustin Johnson: $3M
8. Brooks Koepka: $3M
9. Jon Rahm: $3M
10. Bubba Watson: $3M

I have to agree. This money would be way better spent growing the game with youth programs and purses and the lower tours.
