How Much do CrossFit Games Cuts Really Matter?

With all of the controversy and discussion surrounding the recent announcement of this year’s cut schedule at the CrossFit Games, we wanted to look at this news from a different angle and ask an interesting question.
How much do cuts actually matter in the grand scheme of things?
Please note that an exhaustive study of the impact of cuts across the 68.75% of CrossFit Games that have used cuts (including 2023) has yet to be done. For our purposes in this article we limited our data set to the 2022 Games. This is the beginning, not the end of a discussion.
