  is it me or is there some cheating going on?

  iv just played a hacker on st andrews and he shot 65!!!

  and i thought golf was a fair sport. if you cant win without using cheat modes then dont play the game.

  Ya think?  I played a guy and as a hack he beat me by 2.  I had been a Tour master about 4 months.  Not a great golfer, but not a hack either.  He wanted to play for credits, and asked me how many I had.  I told him that was my business!  He proceded to tell me he had 1600.  I said-- good for you, but I don't play for credits w/people I don't know. I asked him how long he had been playing, he said 2 weeks..I said, well it's been my experience that players who shoot that well after 2 weeks have started over!!  He didn't disagree.  I dropped him like a sack of rocks..there are a lot more out there still...

  They aren't playing with those modes,omt, there aren't any. What they are doing is starting over with an unfair advantage preying on unsuspecting types. The # lady does what you should do. Unfortunately that's  the way it is and there's not much anybody can do about it. :-(

  Oldman and # lady, you should report the culprits to members@wgt.com. No guarantees, but a little vigilance from players who observe this kind of stuff is the only hope.
