  Still no reply from WGT about entering players actual playing handicap (mine is 36). Through efforts I have moved from Hack To Amateur, but it would still be a good idea for players to enter their own handicap (Schweiz 0 - 36, Germany/Austria 0-54)

  Still waiting for a WGT response

  Not everybody here plays the game IRL and of those that do I would imagine most don't have them. I play and I don't.

  I think it doesn't make sense because the computer is manupulating your score. I have a handicap of 26,9 for real golf and with WGt I am Pro 74,48 level 90

  Can you explain how it would help? I never hit a gold ball on the course in real life but I do ok here?

  I can't see the relevance of a players real world handicap, you don't need to be a real world golfer to play well here.

  Are you sugesting someone with a low handicap should also play off a handicap here? Seems kinda nutty to me.
