The Player of the Year title is awarded for the best overall performance during a calendar year. This is determined by a complex but allegedly equitable system which ranks players according to points they earn for each tournament in which they compete (see below for details)

HOW IT WORKS 

The points allocated depend on the size of the field (F) and the player's final placing in the tournament: 
1st   = F + 20;      2nd  = F + 6;      3rd  = F;       nth  = F - n + 1

An average is then taken of the player's N best rounds for the year depending on how many tournaments the player competed in: 
 
5 or 6 tournaments:     N = 5           7 or 8 tournaments:     N = 6
  9 or 10 tournaments:   N = 7           11 or 12 tournaments:  N = 8


A player must compete in at least 5 tournaments during the year to be eligible. If you aren't confused at this stage, then you should consider an actuarial career
