    rolex anD golf forever golf Rolex is committed to the permanent quest for excellence in all its activities and has been a long-term supporter of golf in its pursuit of the same. The brand’s enduring relationship with the game began more than 50 years ago, in 1967, with Arnold Palmer, joined by Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. Known together as The Big Three, these legendary players changed the face of golf forever, and their partnership with Rolex marked the beginning of a relationship based on a commitment to continuous im- provement and unwavering precision. Since then, the affiliation between Rolex and golf has grown into one with a global reach. Rolex is now part of the very fabric of golf and supports the game at all levels, including elite players and legends of the game, Major cham- pionships, the foremost professional tours and the world’s leading team competitions. Rolex’s support for golf is governed by underlying values of integrity and respect for tradition that ensure the continuity of exper- tise and knowledge, while understanding the importance of investing in the development of sport for future generations. As such, the Swiss watchmaker extends its support to amateur tournaments, international federations and organizations representing golfers of all ages. The as- sociation between Rolex and golf stands for quality, elegance, reliability and a pioneering spirit. Please note that the following information is in line with the “traditional” golfing calendar. However, given the extraordinary circumstances that have impacted the entire world in 2020, the dates of some of these events are most likely to have changed and/or will be changed.

  • Australasian Tour 2010
    BRUCE YOUNG Former Leading Caddy, Course Design Marketer and now Leading Australian Golf Analyst Alistair Presnell’s Australasian Tour record equalling round of 60 to win the Victorian PGA Championship at Sandhurst Club in mid February was a fitting way to bring the golfing HOT SUMMER IN OZ summer of 2009/2010 to a close. resnell was on track to become the first player to break 60 on the APGA Tour when he raced to 11 under Pthrough 13 holes but a short missed birdie putt at the 17th cost him chance to create history. Both Paul Gow (2001) and Ernie Els (2005) had previously shot 60 and Presnell now becomes a member of those who share that milestone. A round of 59 was produced in a Von Nida Tour event in 2005 when Brad McIntosh won the Queensland PGA Championship and Craig Jones had also done so in a Pro Am event in Queensland but to have done so in a PGA Tour event would have been something quite special. While the PGA Tour of Australasia is now played over a calendar year, there is still a perception that the events of late 2009 and early 2010 are one. With the completion of the Victorian PGA Championship at Sandhurst however we must now wait until October for continuation of the 2010 season so perhaps now a chance to look back at the high- lights of these past few months and what we can expect in the coming months. The summer has been made up of three what could be described as mainstream events (The Aus- tralian Masters, Open and PGA Championships), two events co sanctioned with the Nationwide Tour and eight events that have now come under the umbrella of the PGA Tour but are known as Tier two events.

  • Persistence in the Official World Golf Rankings
    PERSISTENCE IN THE OFFICIAL WORLD GOLF RANKINGS A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Mason Bergh December 2018 PERSISTENCE IN THE OFFICIAL WORLD GOLF RANKINGS Mason Bergh December 2018 Economics Abstract This paper builds on decades of hot hand effect research. Belief in persistent success or failure is common in sports despite a lack of statistical evidence supporting the phenomenon. Using weekly ranking data for 60 professional golfers around the world, this study deploys an ordinary least squares regression to analyze if persistent rank movement exists in the Official World Golf Rankings. This study hypothesizes that persistence does not exist outside of chance because significant evidence is needed to support the existence of streaks in golf ranks. Like previous studies, the results suggest that streaks do occur, but true statistical evidence to reject the hypothesis was not present. KEYWORDS: (Persistence, Hot hand, Official World Golf Rankings, Golf) JEL CODES: Z21, L83 ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thank you to my family for the continuous love and support that they have shown me. Also, thank you to Neal Rappaport for his commitment and guidance throughout this process. iii ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Mason Bergh Signature iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT…………………………………………………………………………. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS…………………………………………………………. iii 1 INTRODUCTION……………………………………………………………...... 1 2 LITERATURE REVIEW………………………………………………………… 3 2.1 Beginning of Streak Research………………………………………………... 4 2.2 Psychological Theories………………………………………………………. 6 2.3 Literature in Golf…………………………………………………………….. 8 3 THEORY……………………………………………………………………….... 12 3.1 Model………………………………………………………………………… 12 4 DATA…………………………………………………………………………….

  • Are the Official World Golf Rankings Biased?
    Are the Official World Golf Rankings Biased?∗ Mark Broadie Richard J. Rendleman, Jr. Graduate School of Business Tuck School of Business Columbia University Dartmouth College email: [email protected] Kenan-Flagler Business School UNC Chapel Hill email: richard [email protected] This version: February 26, 2013 First version: April 18, 2012 Abstract Golf is a global sport with professional golfers playing on many organized tours throughout the world. The largest and most important tours for male professionals include the PGA Tour, European Tour, Japanese Tour and Asian Tour. The Official World Golf Ranking, or OWGR, is a system for ranking male professional golfers on a single scale. We say a ranking system is unbiased if otherwise identical golfers who happen to play on different tours have the same (or very similar) ranks. In this paper, we investigate whether the OWGR system is biased for or against any of the tours, and if so, by how much. To investigate any potential bias, we compare the OWGR system with two unbiased methods for estimating golfer skill and performance. The first is a score-based skill estimation (SBSE) method, which uses scoring data to estimate golfer skill, taking into account the relative difficulty of the course in each tournament round. The second is the Sagarin method, which uses win-lose-tie and scoring differential results for golfers playing in the same tournaments, to rank golfers. Neither the score-based skill method nor the Sagarin method use tour information in calculating player ranks, and therefore neither method is biased for or against any tour.
