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…………………………………………………………………………….

Shaun Coetzee Motivational Letter
Shaun Coetzee Motivational Letter My Background and where my journey started. In 2004 I started my PGA apprenticeship under PGA member Craig Lewthwaite. I learned the basic fundamentals of the golf swing and learning how to fully custom fit with leading brands like Titleist and Cobra golf. I also played in my quota of Sunshine Tour events, but never attained the results I desired. In 2005 I was ready to start running my own junior clinics and ladies clinics. This is where I grew and enhanced my teaching skills. I was running 3 clinics a week in my spare time as managing the driving range took up most of my time. I spent a lot of hours with Craig Lewthwaite on the range refining my understanding of the fundamentals of the golf swing, understanding the sequence of the golf swing better and better. Craig was also a lecturer for Damelin College who had an accreditation to the PGA which made our time together and his teachings really important and his fundamentals absolutely perfect. Again I played in my quota of Sunshine Tour events with no success. In 2006 I was still pursuing my junior golf coaching by running many junior clinics and holiday clinics throughout the year. I also helped with golf school coaching such as "play golf run" directly from the range. In this year there was also an opportunity for me to help Craig Lewthwaite with development coaching, which took place on a Saturday afternoon for 10-15 underprivileged kids. We would teach the basics of golf, followed by lunch, once a week for 12 weeks.

Additional Details, Frequently Asked
1 HOW THE UPDATED RANKING SYSTEM WORKS ELIGIBLE GOLF TOURS Official Tournaments from the leading professional Eligible Golf Tours from around the world, as well as Major Championship, World Golf Championships, and the Olympic golf competition, are eligible for World Ranking Points (excluding team events). Players competing in these tournaments will receive Ranking Points subject to their respective finishing position and according to each tournament’s Field Rating. The Eligible Golf Tours currently included in the OWGR System are: Abema TV Tour China Tour MENA Golf Tour PGA TOUR Latinoamerica All Thailand Golf Tour EuroPro Tour Nordic Golf League PGA Tour of Australasia Alps Tour Golf European Challenge Tour PGA European Tour ProGolf Tour Asian Development Tour Japan Golf Tour PGA TOUR Professional Golf Tour of India Asian Tour Korn Ferry Tour PGA TOUR Canada Sunshine Tour Big Easy Tour KPGA Korean Tour PGA TOUR China Series 2 HOW THE UPDATED RANKING SYSTEM WORKS RANKING POINTS The Ranking Points for each player are accumulated over a two-year "rolling" period, with Ranking Points awarded for each tournament maintained for a 13-week period to place additional emphasis on recent performances. Ranking Points are then reduced in equal decrements for the remaining 91 weeks of the two-year ranking period. Each player is then ranked according to their average points per tournament, which is determined by dividing the total number of Ranking Points by the number of tournaments he has played over that two-year period. There is a minimum divisor of 40 tournaments over the two-year ranking period, with no more than the most recent 52 tournaments within the two-year period counting towards a player's Ranking position.
