  It has a lot do with you. All you do is complain about shots being right. And now you have the nerve to come on and say sebicu is not a top player who by the way is a top earnings winner.

  I would rather spend my 2000 credits in seeing you challenge one of the above players than waste my credits on balls trying to.

  NO QUALIFY EVERYONE PLAYS THE OPEN

   

  So does this mean I can just rock up and pay the real US Open? Gees every man and his dog would be there,

  Everyone can TRY to QUALIFY, but as should be the case, only the best should play. Get real man.

  Hello tks for ur comment.Dont ya think 56 being the cut is kinda sick.

   

  Try reading the Tournament rules.

  "the top 156 scores (plus ties) will advance to the Virtual U.S. Open Championship tournament"

  It stands to reason that only the absolute best low scoring players will qualify when there's only 156 plus ties. Thousands and thousands of members give it a go and only a very few can score well enough to qualify by the rules.That's why the scores are so low. They're better than everybody else.  

   I just can't understand some of the stuff that gets posted here sometimes. ugh

  i was stating the fact the virtual open is WGT's ELITE tournament, so IF YOU CANT QUALIFY, then so be it, Its only the "better" player who will qualify.

  It's the USGA's elite tournament. and as mentioned by someone else, the use license WGT pays the USGA for likely prohibits - 

  Everyone should get to play the Open

  And yes, the USGA's tournament is set up such that only the better players qualify.

  Unlike the USGA, WGT lets any WGT player try and qualify for the Virtual U.S. Open.

  The USGA strives to make the U.S. Open the most rigorous, yet fair and complete, examination in the game, testing all forms of shot making.

  The championship, first played in 1895, is open to any professional, and any amateur golfer with a USGA Handicap Index not exceeding 1.4.

  Whats going on in your head??  Where have you come to the conclusion I've said somewhere that Sebicu is not a top player???  you're making things up as you go along just for the sake of argument.  Some people are a step beyond.  Read whats written not read, digest and add 1 + 1 and come up with your own answer.   I've seen It all, Its there in black & white for every one too see, and every one can make up their own mind that you're just making things up.  COMICAL.  My previous posts have been geared at you, NO ONE ELSE, just you, you're the one who started to have a go, so why drag any one else into It.??

  Yes, and thats what i was pointing out until Mr. Pointless jumped in.  every one CAN enter and have a go, but only the BEST players will reach the required cut. The final round shouldn't be a tournament for every one, only the ones who CAN make the qualifying cut, bringing it inline with the usga tournament.
