  11 foot putt, Tournament speed, hit 9.5 feet just a little more than 60% comes up 0.7 feet short on the 6th hole.

  Now, I withdrew from this tournament.  3 putts in a row came up short.  In my opinion this is not good.  Putts did not resemble tournament speed at all.  One, must rely on the information given in any give round.  So, if the green speed says tournament, it must play as tournament, not fast, not slow, but tournament. 

  I did send in a bug report on the six hole.

  RG# 10476

  Now, considering the quality of players in that RG and the Scores posted, obviously they did not run into this problem.

  I agree happened to me somehow what you receive as info is all you can use to make the shot or putt. Many times the putt ends up very long or comes up short ,i have been playing enough on tourney greens to know how to putt them.

  I would also like to add that I created a CC Tournament with Tournament spd greens.  I use this as a method for practicing.  That is the main reason why I reported this.  As Fred said about putting on tournament greens. I have had enough rounds to know what to expect.
