TEE Location Indicator !

  Is there a reason why WGT Generated Tournaments don't specify 'TEE Location' ?

  Some RG Tournaments and other Single Play Tournaments are played from different tees regardless of Tier - Yellow, Red and Blue tees. It certainly would be 'nice' to have prior indication of what TEES a particular tournament will be played from. This would allow participants to equip their bags accordingly ( substituting woods for an additional wedge or whatever suits them) as all the par 5's, from Red & Yellow Tees, are reachable with a mid to long iron for those with top equipment. 

  Suggestion would be to :

  1. Include TEES in the information box on Tournament page...

  

  2. Include TEES on play screen where a participant can verify conditions & equip their bag accordingly prior to teeing off.....

  

   

  * Barring reasonable explanation for this exclusion unbeknownst to me *

  Not only this, but allow CC's to set tee positions in their tournaments. This will provide more variety. I'm getting tired of playing the same setups over and over again. I see the WGT generated tournaments (Sun Safe Classic, NFK Cadillac Golf Classic, Kingsford Get Out and Grill Open) have different tee positions. Allow CC's to do the same please.

  Agreed, B, but only as practice tournaments.

  Other than that, the egobaggers would set up tourneys from Sissy tees only to dump their average. (assuming that said tournaments are being used for that purpose already).

  I think it would only be needed in Tier specific RG's,, as all open RG's are played from tiered tees.
