The Player Impact Program was created to offer additional compensation to PGA members who generated positive interest in the association in a given year.

How is this "scored" by the PGA Tour?

  1. Internet Searches: Number of times a player’s name is searched on the internet;
  2. Earned Media: Number of unique news articles that include a player’s name;
  3. Social Media: Social media score that considers a player’s reach, conversation and engagement metrics;
  4. TV Sponsor Exposure: Duration (time) that a player’s sponsor logo(s) appears on screen during Saturday/Sunday telecasts;
  5. Awareness: A player’s general awareness score among broad U.S. population.
