Uh, it's, it's not a perfect system, uh, by any means, because you, you really, especially when you see these other, the guys that finish in the top 30 year in, year out, they go and miss cuts in these, um, in these, uh, full field events, you're just thinking to yourself like, man, well, how would they do an entire year with With, uh, full fields, you know, would they be able to make as many cuts as they, as they do now because going from 70 to 50 when half the signature events are cuts and half aren't, it's, uh, it's pretty easy to kind of freewheel your golf game, not, not having to worry quite a, quite as much about losing your card. Well, and I'd even love to really dive deep with the stats department on Uh, and, and this, this is just a theory, this may not hold true, but just, just looking at the composition of a four-day no-cut signature event where some of these guys earn lots of points where If they just played OK Thursday, Friday, do they make a cut in a full field event or they kind of lost in the mix and then you just go out and light, you light it up on moving day. And, and, and then all of a sudden you, there are less people you have to jump, right? There are only, you know, 70, 80 people in that field. So you, you, you know, maybe you're, you, you're in a place where you could have missed the cut and got 0 points. All of a sudden you catapult up and you're getting way more points, and that's the kind of the bread and butter you're living off of. To stay in this category. Now, I, I, you know, maybe you crunch the stats and that's not an issue at all, but these are just the types of things that the system is set up, um, to, to query about, right? Just to like, is, is this, you know, how is this thing working? And again, and it may come back down to this is the way we want the system set up because we want, we want to keep these guys in and around these events because they are superstars, they're the way we market the game, they're, you know, what we sell against from a television contract perspective. And, and that's a decision, right? Um, but it is one that is, you know, many would rightly say is kind of against the spirit of what the tour has been in the past.
