Ahem

FedExCup champion McIlroy voted 2019 PGA TOUR Player of the Year

Just saw that! McIlroy won POY. Both had fantastic years. So as to just render my constant and expected agitation of the Shot Talk masses... I still like it when we have such a large number of really good players, any of which can win any given tournament on any given day.

Perhaps it was only a narrow win. Maybe by a whisker.

By an inch or a mile...second place is just the first loser.

“But the Tour players, in voting for McIlroy over Koepka, were shunning history in favor of money. That’s their prerogative. They are professional golfers, after all. “Show me the money” works as well for them as it does for anybody else, if not better. “Follow the money” does, too, when trying to figure out their motivations.”

In naming Rory McIlroy Player of the Year, Tour players shunned history for money — Golf

Pretty bold, claiming they voted in favor of the money. And by bold I mean dumb.

And by dumb I mean accurate.

You are very bold, Greg.

Rory regains the World #1 spot. 2020 starts well for him.
