Next week’s final PGA tournament of 2011, The Children’s Miracle Hospital Network held at the Disney World Resort Courses in Orlando, will be the final showdown for PGA Player of the Year and the PGA Money Title.  Luke Donald has led the PGA money list since early in the year, but Webb Simpson is primed to overtake him going into the final event.

Donald is also leading the Race to Dubai, the European Tour’s money list and is trying to become the first professional golfer to ever win money titles on both the PGA and European Tours in the same year.  In just 12 starts on the European Tour he has had three wins, as well as nine top tens, for a comfortable $1.3 million Euro lead over Rory McIlroy.

Donald has the edge over Simpson in the Majors in 2011, finishing fourth at the Masters, 45th at the U.S. Open, 94th at the British, and eighth in the PGA.  Simpson did not qualify for the Masters, was 14th at the U. S. Open, 16th at the British and missed the cut at the PGA.

Luke has also performed well in the World Golf Championship (WGC) events.  His only win in the U.S. came at the WGC-Accenture Match Play, where he...
