Thursday Men's League: Rankings
How the Cochrane Golf Rankings 2026 works
The Cochrane Golf Rankings 2026 is a season-long race, scored like the FedEx Cup. You don't need to win to do well: every week you play, you earn points for where you finish, and those points build up over the season. It runs from May 4 to October 5, with race weeks going from Monday to Sunday. Players from Monday Men's League and Thursday Men's League race together.
Each week
- Your score is your gross score, with no handicap strokes. Lowest gross finishes first.
- Each flight is its own race (Flights 1, 2 and 3), so you're only ranked against players in your flight.
- Your finish that week earns points from the table. Nearly every finish pays something, so it's always worth posting a score.
- If you play more than once in a week, only your best round counts.
- A week you don't play earns no points. There's no penalty, but you miss the chance to add to your total.
- Tied players share. If two players tie for 2nd in a regular week, they split the points for 2nd and 3rd and each get 425.
Kinds of week
- Regular weeks are most of the season. First place pays 500 points.
- Majors pay more than a regular week. First place pays 750 points. No majors are marked for this race so far.
- Playoffs come at the end of the season and pay the most. First place pays 2,000 points. No playoff weeks are marked for this race so far.
Your season total
- Your points from every week add up, and the standings update as soon as scores are entered. The most points at the end wins.
- For example, finishing 1st, 5th and 10th in three regular weeks gives you 500 + 300 + 190 = 990 points.
Reading the standings
- Last is your place after the week before, and Move is how many places you've gone up or down since.
- Rounds is how many weeks you've played. Behind is how many points you trail the leader by.
