Men’s Player Performance Rankings
The UGA player performance rankings are a cumulative system of ranking amateur golfers in Utah. The PPR rankings are used in determining the UGA Men’s Player of the Year and filling spots on UGA traveling teams.
How does it work?
The PPR rankings works on a rotating calendar basis. Example: When the points are awarded for the State Amateur are awarded, the points from the previous year’s State Amateur will fall off. Only a players top 10 point earning events will count towards their overall points total.
UGA Men’s Player of the Year
The player performance rankings will determine the UGA Men’s Player of the Year. The final counting event for the 2019 Men’s Player of the Year award is the U.S. Mid Amateur Championship. A player must participate in at least two UGA championships or UGA conducted USGA qualifiers to be eligible to earn Men’s Player of the Year honors.

Other PPR Policies:
- If an event changes dates significantly, it will fall off 1 year after the conclusion of the event.
- Players qualifying for a USGA event at an out-of-state qualifier when the UGA does not offer that qualifier, or if a player is exempt into a USGA event, they will receive 20 points.
- Starting in 2019, there will be no bonus point categories. Each event that a player earns points for will be counted towards their best 10 events. Bonus points from 2018 will remain until they are scheduled to drop off.
- The UGA will not award points until the club fulfills its responsibilities of a sanctioned PPR event. If a facility fails to fulfill its responsibilities the UGA reserves the right to revoke PPR status.
