  I am not sure if this has been mentioned and don't see it so i will suggest that we look at having an actual year long tour that players can play in rather than weekly tournaments.

  Would be kind of neat to have a 2,3 or 4 rd event that had weekly winners but also had a point system that carried forward in to a year long event. Might draw a fair amount of interest for the more serious WGTers.

  Add some statistics for the event so guys have something to try to improve upon or measure themselves against others.

  At the end there can be maybe a champions invitational or something for big stakes.

  Competitive players seem to be getting bored with the game a bit and i think something like this would give them something to maybe get excited about and look forward to every week rather than the usual weekly tournaments we see.

  Maybe open up a suggestion forum on who would be interested and what things could be added to spark some interest.

  Thanks,

  I like this Capp.  WGT did something similar last year with the Fall and Winter tour.  It would be cool to do monthly similar to the monthly multi rounds, giving a week for each 18 to be played.   The winner of the tourney could win something, but also award points like the FedEx Cup that would award grander prizes and winner for the highest point getter over the course of 3, 6, or 12 months.

  We should have the seasonal mini tours. Winter, Spring, Summer, & Fall... 4 round stroke tourneys each week for every season. Most points wins big prize... 

  A legit Tour will take my mind off of all the terrible updates WGT implements.

  Thats right i heard about those tours....i was on a self imposed leave of absence at the time....lol.

  Just think we need something as day to day gameplay has become quite boring to the guys that like the competition...

  If WGT gotr something like this fired up i am sure it would spark a lot of interest in the game again.

  This has been mentioned in the forums before. The response was it takes too long and would be hard to keep interest up.

  Hence great ideas for "mini tours". Great for the elite players (of which I am not one lol).

  Have say 4 a year and then have a grand winner for the year or perhaps even a playoff series?
