  As an addendum to all of the above , wouldn't everyone like to know that as of today , nine of the top twelve scores in the pro tier of the Sept. 18 hole unlimited at Bethpage were shot by pros AFTER their elevation to master status ....

   The exact same thing happened last month and will continue until WGT fixes this. Unfortunately there are too many players Without Integrity period!

  i for one can say that we don't all choose the "loophole" path...my history;

  8/28 joined WGT

  8/29 promoted to pro

  9/5 promoted to master

  9/17 played Sept 18 hole for the 1st time as a master in the master tier.

  i think i played 1 week 35 trny in the am tier and 3 week 36 trnys in the pro tier....i saw the sandbagging issue discussed in these forums soon after i joined WGT and wanted no part of it.
