  It’s not been long since I started playing in the event calendar tournaments, so some information needed please.

  When playing a single play tournament, does everyone get the same wind strength and direction ?

  Do players get the same green speed regardless of their tier , or are the green speeds set according to players tiers?

  Thanks

  All tournaments that include all tiers have the same green speeds. Wind speeds are the same for all tiers but not the direction of the wind.

  Everybody gets the same green speed in a tournament regardless of tier, even if it is a multi-tier event.

  Everyone also gets the same wind "package" ... high, moderate or easy.  But hole by hole, it can be very different both on speed and direction.  It should average out but, especially when getting into high wind tournaments, there is luck involved.
