==World ranking points==
[[Official World Golf Ranking]] points are awarded for high finishes in Challenge Tour events. Formerly, most events awarded 12 points to the winner, with European Tour dual-ranking events awarding 18 points. The [[Challenge Tour Grand Final]] gave 17 points to the winner. 

In 2014, a number of events received slightly higher points totals, with three events earning a minimum of 13 points and the Challenge Tour Grand Final winner receiving 17 points, up from 16.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.owgr.com/news/2014/august/press-release |title=OWGR Board Announces Adjustments To Ranking System |publisher=Official World Golf Ranking |date=6 August 2014 |access-date=29 August 2023 |quote=The European Challenge Tour is introducing a "final series" of events this year and the Board agreed that the minimum ranking points for these events would be increased.}}</ref>
