The team scoring system should be more akin to the payouts of the tournament imo. I mean who enters a 200 runner MTT to finish in the top 100?
The people finishing in the top 3 or so positions (certainly final table) should have a large bearing on who wins the team prizes, so points increments should increase accordingly on the final table.
Probably a difficult one to get right but certainly think 100 getting points is a bit much.

totally agree. There has/should be a huge uplift for those reaching the final table. Up to 20 hours play has to be rewarded. Suggest F1 scoring system for top 10 on top of the normal scoring structure as an absolute minimum. The winner deserves so much more than 10 points more than 10th and would really tighten up the team event positions until much later in the day on Sunday.

Totally disagree - it"s a team event so it matters less who is in the top few than where the majority of the team finish. Current scoring system is spot on. Please don"t mess about with this event.

The vast majority of posts in this thread urge the powers-that-be not to tinker with the format of the team event - I do hope that this doesn"t fall on deaf ears.

I"m in this camp - to "over weigh" the points for the "top finishers" I fear would skew the all-round performance of the whole team - for both the teams that do well with 1 or 2 players who run very deep, but also for the teams who don"t quite make the final few spots but maybe did very well with their players up to that point - the performance of the "whole team" being the deciding factor in crowning the Champions.
