39th on the money list, but higher on the points list due to finishes in higher point events. 32nd is plenty good to get in, but I don’t think she’s stopping there!! Think the top 75 get in if not more. Audit likely has a lot more detail to add!
its similar to the fedex Cup on the men’s side except at the end there is just one event instead of a 4 week playoff.
accumulate points throughout the season based on finish position. Majors worth more points, limited field events less. All tournament winners and the 72 top point getters qualify for the final event. Like the FedEx, Points reset to a predetermined schedule based on ordinal ranking for the final event. This ensures no player has locked up the title before the last week, but a player can still win the points race without winning the last tournament.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
