Re-rank
UPDATE: The PGA have updated entry lists with the new rankings at a similar time to publishing this article so we can all disregard!
We’ve hit the break in the PGATA season and categories 14-21 will now occur. I’ve had multiple players and coaches ask where they are at so it’s easier to post here with the full rankings and what the tournament entries will look like.
These are the categories involved in the re-rank:
Category 14: Players ranked 2 – 30 from the most recent PGA Tour of Australasia Qualifying School.
Category 15: Members ranked 51-70 from the Final PGA Tour Order of Merit of the previous PGA Tour of Australasia season
Category 18: Leading 10 Members, to a ceiling of 20th position, not otherwise exempt from the 2023/24 PGA of Australia National Pro-Am
Order of Merit
Category 19: Leading 3 players (not otherwise exempt in a higher category) entered for the Tournament in question from the from the Top
10 of the Final 2023 New Zealand PGA Order of Merit Should any players within this category re rank, then a maximum of 3
players only, who commenced the season in this category, will be eligible to play in any given tournament via the exemption
categories
Category 20: Any current Full Member Tournament, not exempt in a higher category, having won an official PGA Tour of Australasia
Tournament or an official tournament on a Tour recognized by the PGA of Australia since 1 January 2014.
Category 21: Leading 5 graduates (not otherwise exempt in a higher category) from the Final 2023 PGA of Australia Membership Pathway
Program Playing Invite List (to a ceiling of 10th position)
There are no players in category 16 or category 17 so far this season.
Some players in the re-rank are not expected to play again this season, however I will still include them on the full list. Full rankings below.
These are based on the player category list published before the season began so apologies if anyone has been missed.
Below are the events in the second half of the season that have a published entry list, and where the current cut-off applies. Entries have not yet closed so this information is based on entries at the time of publishing (16th December 2024) and are subject to change. The allocation of tournament invites can also move players up.
Note - each event will include an extra 3 players from outside the cut-off based on the Order of Merit rankings (Category 11b - Leading 3 NEX OoM within Top 50).
