    All 8 WGT tournaments and the Merion classic put up for the month of February have Heavy winds.  Sure it's going to to be more of a test and sort the really good players out from the not so good but really!  A bit of variety would be nice rather than the same conditions across all the tournaments.

    Same for last month too, exact same courses and conditions.

    St Andrews 18 hole heavy wind

    Pebble 18 hole heavy wind

    Wolf Creek which incidently is getting a hammering, like the new toy, heavy wind.

    Easy enough to do really, leave the tournaments as they are, just change the month, not to much to do.

    Oh and Olympic....heavy wind!!

    My monies on next month..........heavy wind?

    Time to rewrite the code WGT. 3 wind settings simply can’t cut it anymore. Need to be a more accurate reflection of real life. Make it 4 settings: low (0-8), moderate (8-16), strong (17-25) and heavy (25-32). 32 seems to be the maximum right now so we’ll leave it at that

    good idea making more wind settings, Calm 0-5, Light 5-10, Breezy 10-15, Windy 15-20, Strong 20-25, Gale 25+.
