    Well, I thought they had learned their lesson (j/k).

     

    WGT,

    Random high winds on premium tournaments is THE LEAST FAIR WAY to run them.  Please stop.  HIGH WINDS should NEVER be used for single play tournaments as it creates a MASSIVE advantage or disadvantage for the players.  It would be sheer stupidity on your part to continue to use them as such.

    ARE YOU STUPID?

     

    Well, I thought I'd give them a break and go back to playing premiums.  Enter the Weekly Multi- premium at BPB and get prohibitive winds (at least 17MPH) in my face on 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (so far... two holes to play).

    Edit:  And #9... so the only holes I did not have at least a 17 MPH headwind on were #2 (short par 4, usually a bit of a lay up) and #8 (par 3).  Every @#$%^ hole that distance matters off the tee?  Prohibitive ignorance-spawned headwind.

     

    At this point, it's just ignorance to continue to suggest that this is the best way to run premium tourneys.

    To be honest, until WGT figures out how to do prevailing winds for every player they should remove Heavy Winds from the options.
