Here’s an idea I would personally really enjoy for a Tour Championship format: -Top 4 guys in the fed ex cup going into the finals get a bye and are seeded 1-4 for quarter finals on Saturday. This rewards the top players for their success without getting into awkward stroke advantages. It also adds drama for the first two events since those 4 spots have such significance. They also get to rest up.. if that makes a difference. -Thursday - Friday - remaining top 26 guys play 36 holes of stroke play. Top 4 guys get in to the 5-8 seeds for Saturday. This creates all sort of drama focusing on the final four spots with matchup and playoff scenarios for those spots aplenty. -Saturday is the match play day. Guys are all seeded 1-8. 18 holes to decide who gets into the final championship on Sunday. Cool underdog stories are available here if a later bloomer gets into the playoffs and then grabs a bottom seed. Match is amazing. -Sunday is the final four for the championship. To avoid any further luck with match play, I think a final foursome stroke play would be awesome. Final four guys in a group adds extra drama. I think 18 holes makes sense. Everyone starts on an even playing field. Sure to create more drama and last final stretch heroics versus the current format. I think that checks a lot of boxes in terms of entertainment while being easier to follow and rewarding the best players without being gimmicky. Thoughts?
After our round on Labor Day a friend came up with what I think is a great idea. The start is staggered by how many wins they have during the season. Scottie would start -6, Dunlap MacIntyre, Matusyama, McIlroy & Schauffele -2, etc.
16:32 all them ads.
Sleeze nailed the problem with the FedEx cup. I think most golf fans would agree and I really liked the suggestions to fix it.

Brad joins Good Good, so that means he’s also a holy roller/straight edge?
Why not award the winner at the end of the year then do some sort of playoffs with final 8 making east lake and do match play.
Sneaky cut some nicknames?
was thinking the same lol
White guy shuffle for the dance move
or just give the top 8 a bye week like the nfl
I am 58 golf addict for 30 years. I haven’t watched golf channel since 2015. Unless they have golf tournament. They are unwatchable.
Why is it when a player is good to make the PGA tour they struggle with their swing and they want to change it. Just play golf. Be like Jack.
