Tour Insider: You Can't Please Everyone

Williamson, discussing the dilemma in the locker room at Riviera on Wednesday, admitted the new proposal may be a knee-jerk reaction and a case of going from too hard to too soft in too short a time. Instead, he proposed a cut to the low 65 and ties, the system used by the European Tour. But that just shows what Finchem, the PAC and the policy board are up against: It's hard to please all of the players all of the time.

Instead of two cuts, Beem would like to see the cut rule changed back to the way it was at the beginning of the season and let the season play itself out. Re-evaluate it then. "I'd like to do something that makes sense," he said.
