What are the possibilities for tour events (and others)  following 
what seems to be the European practice of having a team fee for 
entering tournaments combined with an additional personal fee for 
each player.  This would seem to take some of the burden off 
smaller teams and share costs out more evenly amongst 
everybody playing at a tournament. I suppose the downside is that 
this may not accurately reflect pitch time versus cash paid on an 
individual basis, but to be honest I'm not entirely convinced thats 
how the players on the top teams view events such as the tour.
Can anybody comment on the pros and cons of such a fee system?
