  • Nordic League-Utøvere Får Verdensrankingpoeng, Også Amatører
    PRESSEMELDING FRA NORGES GOLFFORBUND: Nordic League-utøvere får verdensrankingpoeng, også amatører. (St.Andrews/Ullevaal, 17. juli 2015) Official World Golf Ranking tildeler Nordic Golf League verdensrankingpoeng. Med bra spill på eksempelvis Nordea- og Ecco Tour vil norske utøvere få mulighet til å klatre oppover listen som for tiden toppes av Jordan Spieth. Også amatører vil kunne motta verdensrankingpoeng på amatørrankingen (WAGR), ifølge det nye vedtaket. - Dette er veldig bra siden NGF ønsker å satse på Nordic League-turneringer. Nordic League er også en god tour hvor våre beste amatører kan teste på proffgolf, så da er det positivt at også amatørene kan få WAGR-poeng, sier toppidrettsansvarlig Jon Karlsen i Norges Golfforbund (NGF). Fremgang blant proffene De norske profesjonelle utøvere på Nordic League gjør det betraktelig bedre i år enn i 2014. Det viser de norske resultatene fra Nordea- og Ecco Tour. NGF valgte i 2014 å satse på internasjonale turneringer på Nordic League-nivå fremfor den mer prestisjefulle European Challenge Tour. Internasjonale turneringer på norsk jord skulle tilpasses norske utøveres ferdighetsnivå. I 2014 hadde norske proffspillere 15 topp 25-plasseringer på 24 turneringer på Nordic League. Norske spillere har allerede nesten doblet fjorårets antall topp 25-plasseringer på 14 turneringer. Da er norske NL-turneringer er ikke med i statistikken for hverken 2014 eller 2015. Jon Karlsen i NGF er godt fornøyd med utøverne så langt. - Wild cards ga flere utøvere sjansen på Challenge Tour i 2013/2014, men statistikken viste at kun 9 % av norske starter på CT ga topp 25-plassering. Det er viktig at både NGF og enkeltspillere har ett realistisk forhold til eget nivå.

  • 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.
