The points system for the season works like this. Points can be accumulated at any BGC tournament other than the Ryder Cup. Points are awarded to all players in the tournament up to forty with the exception that the last place finisher, no matter the size of the field, always gets zero points.
Only a player’s top five tournaments (out of a potential 11 tournaments) are used to determine their total points for the season.
For all tournaments except the Travel Tournament, Club Championships, Holiday Classic, Pinehurst Derby, and Match Play the points are awarded as follows.

If two or more players tie, each player is awarded the sum of the prize money for those places divided by the number of players. For example, if four players tie for second place. Each players gets the sum of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th place money divided by four.
In the event of a tie at the end of the season the prize money will also be allocated in the same method as described above for allocating points, with the exception of a first place tie. If two players are tied for first, the winner will be determined by an 18 hole match play. If three or more players are tied, the winner will be determined by an 18 hole stroke play competition.
