Because there are non-major tournaments that actually pay more. Personally, I rank the US Open and British Open as the top tournaments. The US Open is the toughest test of golf, and the British is both tough and historical. I'd rank the Masters a very close 3rd. Good mix of golf and history. The PGA ... um ... is the last chance to win a major during the year!

We only had two tournaments. Just because of the longevity differences I'd say. RSG-OHIO RSG-NW RSG-CINC RSG-ATL RSG-DFW -- ___, \o | / \ . �Someone likes every shot� bk
