The season's not quite done yet and there are two big tournaments to be decided yet in the FedEx Cup and HSBC Champions event. But from season so far, lets hear your pick for player of the year from the PGA or European Tours. Nominated multiple winners and Major champions apart from one or two.

I'd love to say Ernie, since he's in the top 10 of both the Euro and US tour "Order Of Merit" standings, which is pretty good going. But he couldn't win a major and just hasn't played as well in the second half as he did in the first. I think DJ has been the biggest story on the PGA Tour this year, for both good and bad reasons. On the European side I'd go with Kaymer, although I think the biggest breakthrough there this year has come from Eduardo Molinari. So, yeah, I dunno lol.

DJ, sure he didn't win a major, which pretty much takes him out of the picture, but he came so close twice, and has played consistently well most of the season. Him bouncing back after his 2 final day mishaps to win the BMW was cool too. 2011 is gonna be a good year for Dustin

Martin Kaymer and Miguel Angel Jimenez are the only players with three international victories on any of the major tours in 2010; Martin's PGA Championship victory pushes him over the threshold.

    • Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light. 
    • Day 117 12-7 A bit of chipping practice today. Full swing- hit some real balls to see where Im at. 
    • Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.
    • I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.
    • Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
