If that's true then Bubba, Rickie, or Stenson are in the mix?What's the point of a playoff is the winner does not get player of the year? Isnt that the entire purpose of a playoff?

Day wins FedEx Cup with a strong showing at Tour Championship and he's got it.
Yup. So the fact that he has a huge lead in the standings means little if one of those guys win next week.If that's true then Bubba, Rickie, or Stenson are in the mix?

So right now I say its still Jordan. Becomes a better debate if Day wins next week.
Better debate IMO. Let's say an awesome debate.A better debate, or a done deal?

Great now I'm hungryThose damn broccoli greens at Chambers Bay even ruin POY conversations.
Doesn't necessarily compute for me. The playoff is for the FedEx Cup. You run through the playoffs and you get that. I don't think it means you become POY.
I guess that is the disconnect for me.
We have rankings
We have a PGA Tour Playoff
We have majors, but not all are PGA Tour (like WGC)
And we have POY.
To me the POY should win the playoffs.
We can agree to disagree and that's fine. Player of the year, not player of one month(playoffs). Look at guys like Bill Hass, Billy Ho, they had runs through the playoffs that ended with the Cup. Neither were POY candidates.
Oddly enough I'm not a huge fan of either of these 2 gents. Makes it easy to have no favoritism.
I think it comes down to what one considers the playoffs.
If they want to call it that, I look at it like I would any other sport.
So I will use the Patriots regular season undefeated and then losing in the super bowl. They got into the playoffs because of their brilliant regular season and the best seed because of that season, much like these guys.
Its not like winning POY is like winning a major or matters long term. So for me, its much like the Super Bowl. You win the playoffs, you win the Super Bowl.
Others will view it as the MVP, and that can go to the best player for that year if they want. I just struggle with a playoff system that leads to nothing other than cash.
The majors to me carry much more weight than the playoff events.
The majors to me carry much more weight than the playoff events. The Players Championship to me weighs more than even the Tour Championship.
