    I hate them!!! I missed a chip of six yards and ended up forty feet away as the ball refused to slow down. I constantly miss putts of about ten feet by just a hair and the ball ends up ten feet away from the hole on the other side. Tournament greens are silly how fast they are. They are like playing on asphalt!!!

    Okay... I am done. The bottom line is that I am not very good at WGT.

    LOL but do you have fun?

    Well I hope so. The good news is you slowly get used to faster and faster greens as you tier up, and then find it really tough reverting back to slower greens.

    That said Champ greens can be tough, those 8 inch downhillers teach you 2 things. 1. How to hole those 10 footers coming back and 2. where NOT to hit the ball to next time.

    I too am not very good, but I do have fun, and if I don't, the others I play with have fun at my expense!

    It's all down to percentages or working out a scale. Once you get the hang of it, it's a piece of cake.

    I almost want to watch him play on champ greens now.  A 3 foot putt would go in the water 20 yards away.
