  Hey there, I got a question and a suggestion in one phrase. Why do I have to wait until a Ready Go Tournament is paid out until I can enter a new one on the same holes? I don't care about how long my credits take until they get added. But I'd like to play more than just one Ready Go on my favorite nine holes a day. Like it is now I can only play 1 Ready Go at my 2 favourite 9 holes per day because some guys don't play there round. Well let them wait 11 hours to play there round but please allow me to play another Ready Go on the same course. regards

  Hi coola,

  We space the ready go's out so that everyone has a decent chance of winning, but more specifically so the best players aren't winning every time.  Without a time restriction it's very possible you could be playing against the top players on the site each & every time you hit the course.  The time restriction between events lessens the chance that you'll be in the same tournament as the sub 60 masters.

  Fair enough Niv,

  All the same you must surely be aware that probably only 1 out of 20ish RG's actually finishes early with 50 players having played their games.

  For whatever reason there is always 1 or 2 that don't play and the rest of us just have to wait for the 12 hours to elapse before our favorite 9's become available again.

  You have no control over people that renag on their games (again for whatever reason?) but could the 12 hours be shortened to 6?

  Nobody should miss out then as there is always a RG that they can play as and when they are ready:)

  Under the current format you can play 7 RG's a day.

  Believe me when I say that you do not want them to reduce the time on these.

  If they did the top tier guys would have the opportunity to enter and win more RG's (you don't want that).

  Happy hitting.

  Personal choice here I suppose, but I for one would be quite happy to play more than one Ready Go on my favorite course per day.

  Golf is a game where you compete against the course and the conditions, no player (top tier or not) is immune to missing shots at times if they are in fact playing honestly.

  Good competition is what makes us mere mortals better golfers.

  I say "Bring on the 6 hour Ready Go's"

  To enter Ready Go's you need to click the PLAY NOW link at left, then Tournaments, Ready Go's:)

  The enter now link hasn't worked since I've been playing.

  Hope this helps:)
