KPMG Women's PGA with 8,000 spectators

The PGA of America has announced that the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, the third major 2021 of women's golf scheduled from 24 to 27 June at the Atlanta Athletic Club in Johns Creek (Georgia, USA), will be able to host 8,000 spectators per day, all obliged to wear a mask (even those who have been subjected to the anti-Covid vaccination).

There will also be sanitation stations both inside and outside the club, with measures established to ensure the right social distancing.

Cameron Tringale is the richest golfer ever without ever having won a single race on the PGA Tour.

Tringale, finishing third last weekend at the Valspar Championship in Tampa Florida (won by Keegan Bradley) grossed $ 407,000. A great check that brought his bank account well over $ 13 million (13,860,842 to be exact) in eleven years of honorable career on the PGA Tour. And that adjective is certainly not a stretch. On three occasions Cameron has finished second times (the last time in 2015), this season he has seven top twenty in the last ten games played. In total in 2021 he passed the cut 13 times out of 17 starts.

Cameron surpassed Brian Davis in the list of winless millionaires by playing 73 fewer races than him on the circuit.

 The American passion for statistics and rankings is well known. So on specialized sites it turns out to be absurd that Cameron has earned much more in his career than colleagues who have even won Majors. Tom Watson stopped at $ 11 million, John Daly and Bernhard Langer at over $ 10 million. Sure, the rise of Tiger Woods has driven the treasurers of the modern golf world crazy but the comparison between winners and placed is at least singular. The person concerned has made it known that he is not aware of the revenue leadership and frankly I believe him. Instead of him, I would trade two or three positions in that ranking for a title on the PGA Tour. This professional in fact has a second record. He is the player in business with the longest series of initial races (299 today) without a success.

The good moment of form (he is number 65 in the world ranking, in December 2020 it was 103) and the law of large numbers are on his side.
