    Hi I believe that WGT has the distances wrong on hole 15  BPB.

    I have just tiered up to Legend and was playing a Master in Match Play.

    On Hole 15,  I was on a Tee  20 yds  CLOSER   than my Master opponent,

    surely this cant be right ???

      So thought I would bring it to your notice for attention and appropriate action.

    ( I think the distances need changing over )

    It's correct,there are a few holes where legends tees are closer than masters on different courses....

    I wanna say that's almost the only hole they tee off further on. I'm not sure if it was meant to be like that but I like it that way.

    BPB #1 is another example, the difference being below 10 yards.

    The reason is that the scorecard from the US Open Championship (=Legend tees) indeed showed less yardage than the rated back tees of regular play (=Master tees).

    Alas, WGT neglects another difference: #7 plays as a Par4 from all tees like in the US Open. In everyday play, it's a Par 5.

    Shorter tees for Legends on BPB#15 is an reward for making Legend.  ;-)

    There is a par 3 at St A's (can't remember which one)  180 yards for Legends, and 182 yds for TM/Master tees.

    Yes, I've heard this before, but I think It would be a very easy Par5 for us if they changed it.
