Not everyone in LIV Golf is so doom and gloom about the Official World Golf Ranking points allocation, with Peter Uihlein all in favor.
The American admits he might be "one of the few that like it" but he's looking at the positive side that at least LIV Golf has OWGR recognition.
The 36-year-old is obviously more of a glass half full kind of guy as he also speaks about the amount of points the winner of a LIV Golf event will get as a big plus.
Only the top 10 finishers at LIV Golf tournaments will get world ranking points, but the champion at the season opener in Riyadh will accrue more than the winner of this week's Qatar Masters on the DP World Tour.
A LIV Golf statement spoke out against the allocation when the announcement was made, Jon Rahm labelled it as unfair and Talor Gooch then said LIV had changed enough already to warrant full points.
But Uihlein, who has been on LIV Golf since the very start in 2022, is a little more upbeat in his thinking.
"I might be one of the few that like it," Uihlein said in Riyadh. "We have more world ranking points today than we did yesterday.
"I saw the winner gets 23 points this week. In Qatar he gets 20. In my mind we’re the second best tour in the world right now.
"Obviously there are things that probably need to get worked out with the top 10 or whatever, but the reality is we have more points today than we did yesterday. I’m all for it."
Unlike Gooch, who doesn't want LIV to make any more changes just to try and win full OWGR points, Uihlein seems fine with them.
In particular, Uihlein is a fan of extending events to 72 holes, saying it gives him more leeway in making up for any mistakes or bad runs.
"I'm not scared of a blow-up every now and then on a hole in particular, so now I have more holes to make it up," Uihlein added.
"I personally - whether I agree with it or not doesn't matter. It's just part of it now where you have to deal with it.
"But for me personally, I think it's going to benefit me long-term, which is nice.
"It's like a regular tournament, right? You don't feel like you need to blitz it or just kind of keep the pedal on - I don't want to say you can have a bad day, but you can get away with a slower start, if that makes sense."
