Why You Can’t Compare OWGR and Rolex World Golf Rankings Directly
The men’s OWGR and women’s Rolex World Golf Rankings use different formulas. OWGR calculates points over a two-year rolling period with diminishing value. Rolex uses 104 weeks with separate weightings. So Scheffler’s 16.38 cannot be matched 1:1 with Korda’s 12.02.
World Golf Rankings System: Quick Overview
The World Golf Rankings for men started in 1986. Players earn points based on tournament finish and field strength. The Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings began in 2006 with a separate system. Both update every Monday.
