I have just noticed this in someone's Score History, he was a previous member of our CC. How can someone move to Legend from Tour Master when he has only played 7 ranked games !! Surely regardless of any Matchplay games you have to put in the 50 ranked games, before ranking up. I have checked his activity and he has played 4 match play games against one player, who conveniently lost the games!!

This sort of stuff quite frankly is CHEATING !! These players who rank up like this are phoneys and they very often artifically prevent their averages falling as well.

This is a move by WGT to keep the sharks out of the lower tiers. Beat a Legend in MP as a TM and you'll get bumped real quick.

It is possible without any strokeplay, even from Master tier up.

Alas, there is nothing wrong in the way it happens. These are the rules. I don't envy anybody to be Legend without appropriate preparation. Egobaggers shall suffer from their over-the-top average <beg>
