WAGR Counting eventThe World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR), which comprises a women’s ranking and a men’s ranking for elite amateur players, is offered by The R&A and the USGA as a global service to golf. WAGR is updated every Wednesday on www.wagr.com and is available to national federations and organizers of amateur and professional events and tours for purposes of offering exemptions, selecting national teams and assembling Orders of Merit. WAGR currently incorporates over 4,000 events with over 10,000 players and endeavors to be the most comprehensive and accurate ranking in golf by effectively comparing players from around the world who may never directly compete against one another.
Chasing history isn’t easy, but you wouldn’t have guessed that by watching Jason Thresher of West Suffield, Connecticut tap in his par putt on his 54th hole of regulation to win the 109th Massachusetts Open Championship at GreatHorse.
Thresher finished with a three-day score of 11-under par 205 to win his third straight Massachusetts Open Championship title. He becomes only the fifth competitor in the 109-year history of the event to win three straight tournaments.
