In 1989 I had lunch with the bloke who worked for McCormack at IMG and had started the nascent SONY World Golf rankings (as they became) and we discussed what I thought should "count" in the rankings, as a fan, something he was keen to build into the rakning system as it was being developed. I've often liked to think that my views helped him shape them into what they became.
I also started the wikipedia page that describes the old McCormack rankings, because no other bugger (even from their organisation) had been bothered to put them on wikipedia, and put in the links to those olden-days players' pages. I think IMG could bung me the odd £100k just as a thankyou for doing that.
