Korean Tour external link template
[edit]I'm thinking of creating a {{KoreanTour player}} template missing ID and not present in Wikidata. on the lines of the others at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Golf/Templates#External_link_templates. This would link through to http://kgt.co.kr/players/profile.aspx?man_code=nnnnnnnn , eg K. J. Choi would be http://kgt.co.kr/players/profile.aspx?man_code=00000190 . The only issue is that pages are in Korean but the "translate to English" in my Chrome browser is helpful, although occasionally obscure (eg height = 신장 is translated as kidney. The page contains a lot of good stuff. eg the second option (결과 = results) gives season by season results.
Full 2020-21 PGA Tour Schedule published
[edit]Noticed that the PGA Tour have published the full schedule for 2020-21 today [1].
2020 ANA Inspiration
[edit]I am wondering why no one has updated the details of the field in this LPGA Major after it was released on September 4. I have a link which lists the final field here: https://golfweek.usatoday.com/2020/09/04/ana-inspiration-major-field-105-dinah-shore/ Also the 2019 winner will not be competing in this year's event.
Olympic participation counted as a team appearance?
[edit]Xander Schauffele's participations in the 2020 (played in 2021) and 2024 Olympic golf competitions are mentioned under professional team appearances, despite the tournaments were only individual competitions. He was selected to represent his country, but there were no team competitions involved. I can't find any other player article were playing in the Olympics is counted as a team appearance. Suggestion: Remove from headline and just mention in article. Opinions? Regards, EEJB (talk) 14:38, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Clearly not a "team" appearance in any meaningful golfing sense. Remove from that section I would suggest. Nigej (talk) 16:54, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Done by Tewapack. Thank you. At the Summer Youth Olympics, there is a mixed team event. See Marcus Kinhult and Linnea Ström. I added the event among team appearances in the Renato Paratore article. Regards, EEJB (talk) 20:38, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

New England Classics: proposing name changes
[edit]There are two prominent golf events named the New England Classic on Wikipedia. I believe both names should change.
In the 30 year history of the PGA Tour's New England Classic it was only referred to by this title for four years. Meanwhile, the phrase "Pleasant Valley" was more common, used seven times among a number of iterations. In addition, the event was always held at Pleasant Valley Country Club. So something like the "Pleasant Valley Classic" seems to make the most sense.
In addition, in the early 1990s there was a developmental tour event entitled the New England Classic (Nationwide Tour event). However, it was never associated with Nationwide Insurance. Rather, it was affiliated with the Ben Hogan's business for the first three years and then Nike for the final year. I think it should change to the "Ben Hogan New England Classic" as it was usually under this title. Also, it looks like I'm not the only golf editor who thinks this way as pʰeːnuːmuː also noted this in a pages for deletion discussion from this spring. See this link for reference.

Proposing pages for deletion
[edit]I have recently proposed two golfers' pages for deletion: Bobby Greenwood (golfer) and Jimmy Hazen. It would be nice to get responses from other golf editors. The deletion page links are below:

Could someone who actually understands golf take a look at this? I've heavily revised, but I'm not sure I'm characterizing her career correctly...she may not have 'played in the' associations, but simply been trying to 'get a tour card'? Thanks for any help!

"This list of wins may be incomplete" note
[edit]After working a couple of weeks with the Trish Johnson article, I decided to delete the "This list of wins may be incomplete" note over her "Other" professional wins. Of course there are never a guarantee that a player, some were, some time, has won another tournament, but I think this note only should be used for players active long ago, where there is a big uncertainty about their wins and only concerning professional wins. For players active in modern times, there are so many sources covering all important professional tournaments worth to mention. Probably there are more similar articles with this unnecessary note. Opinions? Regards, EEJB (talk) 21:39, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
Hello everyone - It has struck me that we should do something about the Father/Son Challenge article, which is clearly outdated, and which refers to this weekend's PNC Challenge. It should probably be moved to an article with the event's current title, but beyond that it's not restricted to father-son partnerships anymore. This year, Annika played with her teenaged son, and Nelly played with her father. I'm just putting this out there to call more experienced golf editors to have a look and let us know what you think.

- Relevant discussion. Frequent changing av names on tournaments and tours is demanding for an encyclopedia. It is handled today and always possible to search on historic and new names. Sometimes it can be a lttle crazy with misleading names. Regards, EEJB (talk) 07:03, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
