How much more are the top players playing nowadays? Quite a lot more, it turns out. Assuming the top five golfers on the 2013-'14 money list play in the Tour Championship this week (which looks likely), that will mean the five have competed on average in seven of the last nine tournaments on the PGA Tour schedule starting with this year's British Open. That's a lot, especially considering the overall number of events the best players play each year is trending down.
