    ln practise mode you should be able to select a green speed of your choice, also Tee, wind, and hole difficulty, i.e easy medium, hard.

    funnily enough not all tournament speed greens are the same speed!

    you'll get used to it if you persist

    Keep in mind that you are talking of three different green speeds. There are rough numbers available in comparison to Standard green speed, but they vary significantly between games.

    - Tournament (1, Tour Master speed), 130 %,

    - Tournament (2, Legend), 135 %,

    Yes, "Tournament" is indicated for either occurrance, we can only guess and feel the difference.

    - Championship (Tour Legend), 140 %.

    Due to softer stroking, the effects of side and level breaks get more important between the categories.

    Special care is necessary for downhill putts:

    On the first, putt carefully,

    on the second, with elevated caution,

    on the third, apply paranoia :)

    I am going to lose my last hair with the putting green if i'm a legend one day, lol

    Or i am  going to speak to the ball to seduce her and  she will finish in the hole i'm sure.

    But it is a dream my charm is not any more than it was and the green will have my skin lol
