  I just recently moved up to tour pro. My scores dropped 10 shots. I know the breaks on the greens are different, but it seems I have lost all my skill even after learninig to read the new breaks. These scores are highly unrealistic considering I am teeing at the samed location as before. Maybe you should change the name of site from WGT to WTF. The game is realistic but it needs to remain so as a player moves through the levels. I will say this. I will send NO MORE MONEY until the game is more realistic.

  hi

  it'll take time to learn the new green speeds but you will be better for it. as you progress through the ranks, ability to play all green speeds will make you just that much of a better player.

  The step to Master is the big one. The new speeds and distances seem strange at first but they soon become the norm. Honest.

  KY1792:

  I just recently moved up to tour pro.

  Congratulations!

  KY1792:

  My scores dropped 10 shots.

  Congrats again! You scored 76 at Merion as a TP, while the best Pro score was 86.

  => MER, (average -0.5, only one round as TP), best score -10 !

  Regarding the other courses, any complaint to have lost skills is void.

  At STA, your average score rose only by 1.4, the best scores rose by 4.

  RSG, average -0.45, best score +4.

  CCC, (average -5.7, only one round as TP), best score +2

  (all numbers for 18 holes, 9 holes x 2)

  Thus you "lost" a maximum of 4 strokes which can easily be explained by the hotter greens. Adjust your putting length, tap in the second putts, it will become sunny very soon!
