Order of Merit

GolfBargainOffers.com / 11/14

As we have been learning about PGA Tour in the last week, it is the time of the European Tour.

 

And today’s award, the Order of Merit was awarded to the golfer who has won the most money by the European Tour which officially began in 1972, but there is a money list for 1971 on the Tour's official site and unofficial or semi-official money lists existed before that.
 
 
 
Karlsson
 
 
 
Until 2009, Order of Merit was replaced by the Race to Dubai. It is calculated in euro, although around half of the events have prize funds which are fixed in other currencies, mainly British pounds or U.S. dollars.
 
 
In these instances, the amounts are converted into euro at the exchange rate for the week that the tournament is played. The winner of the Order of Merit receives the Harry Vardon Trophy, not to be confused with the Vardon Trophy awarded by the PGA of America. Robert Karlsson was the last winner in 2008.
 
 
The following two players have done a good job:
 
Colin Montgomerie from Scotland has 8 wins.
Seve Ballesteros from Spain has 6 wins.
 
 
Well well, have you done anything good?
