How is the Player Impact Program Determined?

Per the PGA, the scope of the metrics include five criteria:

  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 and Sunday PGA TOUR telecasts
  5. Awareness: A player’s general awareness score among broad U.S. population.
