Fowler: Ricky finished T2 last year. He should be fine with the pace of play.
Spieth: He's young and should be able to handle the travel. It appears he's set himself up to peak again at the right time, so I certainly wouldn't bet against his methods or chances. He finished T36 last year, but let's not act like he's the same dude.
Tiger: You can fall off the map quickly in the rankings.
World Ranking Points
The World Ranking Points for each player are accumulated over a two year “rolling” period with the points awarded for each event maintained for a 13-week period to place additional emphasis on recent performances.
Ranking points are then reduced in equal decrements for the remaining 91 weeks of the two year Ranking period. Each player is then ranked according to his average points per tournament, which is determined by dividing his total number of points by the tournaments he has played over that two-year period.
There is a minimum divisor of 40 tournaments over the two year ranking period and a maximum divisor of a player’s last 52 events.
