If you’re a golf enthusiast, you’ve probably heard of the World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR). But how exactly do these rankings work? Understanding WAGR is crucial for anyone serious about amateur golf, as it determines the standing of players worldwide.
In January 2020, WAGR introduced the Power Method system, aiming to make the ranking process more transparent and logical. This new system classifies competitions with numerical values based on the level of participating players.
Whether you’re eyeing the Winter Cup of Ukraine or the Open Amateur Championship, knowing how these rankings are calculated can give you an edge.
