I typed it in exactly as you described.
Siz End - start + (-) Fiz end - start
Rahm's sizzle went from 137 to 5 (5-137)
Kirk's fizzle went from 74 to 136 (136-74)
(5-137) + (-(136-74))
(-132)+(-(62)
-132-62= -194

I was commenting on the 'a negative score is good' comment. You nailed the formula.


EDIT: I see what you did now....WGR = World Golf Rank Score, not place. I use the actual score that they use to determine the place.

In this scenario I believe a negative score is correct, if the formula is correct. Rahm is mikes ahead of where he started and Kirk dropped.

Am I missing something?

I will update to show that I use the score, not the actual rank. WGRS.

EDIT: Just kidding...too late to edit that original post. I do note in everything BUT the formula that I'm using score, not numbered rank.

Anyone else having trouble posting? It's acting very strange lately.
