UGA Player Performance Rankings, presented by Primo

Track how Utah’s top amateur golfers stack up across every division
with the official UGA Player Performance Rankings (PPR).

UGA Player Performance Rankings

The UGA Player Performance Rankings are a season‑long, cumulative points system that measures how Utah’s amateur golfers perform in designated state and regional events.

These rankings are used to identify UGA Players of the Year and help fill spots on UGA traveling teams across men’s, women’s, and senior divisions.

Traveling teams

Each season, players with standout performances in UGA‑designated events are invited to represent Utah on UGA traveling teams. 

Traveling team spots are filled through a combination of championship titles and Player Performance Rankings, giving top amateurs a pathway to compete in prestigious interstate and regional competitions.
