  It's a pity that "distance from the hole is not shown in replays.

  I can't remember what I did 30mins ago let alone a few hours back....lol

  I watched the replay again and it was showing 15ft and it was on Tourny 12.5  green speed. The replay had the pin in..as they do, but I could hide the pin as if I was putting live.

  I don't have the sound on when I play, maybe I should turn it on.   Anyway, the ball was stopped dead in it's track, which is unusual.  That's when I watched the replay during the game and it clearly showed the flag stopped it going in.  Oh well, that's golf...lol

  The ball was half way in the hole when it stopped. And I always pull the pin

  Well there goes the theory about pulling the pin on greens lol  Might just explain a few things with those what the ----  putts

  Nice pic,   Thank you.  

  Just bringing attention to Wgt that sometimes, that the program can stuff up... in a major comp that would be a disaster to somebody.

  I've been around for years and I pretty much know why I or others might miss a putt....  this one I haven't seen before, when the ball is falling in and stops dead, after looking at replay..well I might know.

  Because the photo displayed on our screens does not exactly match the position of the hole as the hole position is defined in the software.

  The same applies to other parts of the course, which is why sometimes our ball is shown in the rough but the software says the ball is on the fairway, or the other way around.
