What events are included in the SPWAR?
Answer The short answer is at least 400 more events than any other ranking of golfers ever compiled and at least 2000 more events than any other ranking of amateur based in the United States. The complete list of which events are included and how many points are awarded any event remains proprietary information of the SPG so as to thwart attempts by anyone else to copy the SPWAR which is the most accurate ranking of amateurs in the history of golf. The criteria for what events are included is clearly disclosed on the SPWAR Description & Explanation webpage. We do not allow any golf governing body (Union, Golf Association or Federation) to “nominate” an event they deem “national” or for any other reason. We make all those decisions based on meeting stipulated criteria for SPWAR inclusion that is completely unbiased and quantifiable. Anything even close to “national level” worldwide over at least three rounds is already in the SPWAR.
