PGA ATLANTIC ORDER OF MERIT

PGA ATLANTIC ORDER OF MERIT

How it Works: 

The PGA of Canada Atlantic Order of Merit is an ongoing ranking system designed to highlight consistent performance across events. It operates on a revolving two-year cycle, with the average of your best four events counting towards your standing.

  • Participation Requirement: If you participate in fewer than four events, zero points will be awarded for each missing event, up to the four-event threshold.
  • Bonus Points: The most recent version of an event is awarded an additional 25% bonus points. If an event is not held in the current year, the most recent occurrence will continue to receive the bonus until 365 days have passed since the original event date.

Event Categories

  • Major Event: The Zone Championship serves as the only Major in the Order of Merit.
  • Team Event: The PGA Team Championship is included in the rankings.
  • Other Qualifying Events: Tournaments like the Stanhope OpenAmherst Open, and Island Open are eligible, provided a minimum of 15 PGA Atlantic professionals participate.

Annual Standings

The annual standings in the Order of Merit are determined by the total points accumulated from all the events a professional participates in. This system encourages active engagement in regional tournaments while rewarding consistency and high performance.
