• Point period: Points for senior player of the year run on a calendar basis starting with the first tournament of the year and ending with the last tournament of the year.
•  
• Each YCAGA Tournament  Entered & Played  = 20 points
•  
• Match Play Championship (Senior Division Only): Point breakdown: 64 player field: 1^st place -= 225  2^nd = 180 3^rd = 170  4^th = 160  5^th -8^th = 85  9^th - 16^th = 40.   32 player field:  1^st place -= 225  2^nd = 180 3^rd = 170  4^th = 160  5^th -8^th = 80.

Example of a tie:  Let’s assume that two players tie for 2^nd place, the points will be distributed as follows (125 points for 2^nd + 120 points for 3^rd = 245 divided by the two players = 122.5 for each player).

Example of a tie:  Let’s assume that two players tie for 2^nd place, the points will be distributed as follows (225 points for 2^nd + 215 points for 3^rd = 440 divided by the two players = 220 for each player).
