    If WGT are going to be serious about this new tier then "ranked" rounds only should count towards averages and not Ready Go's and country club tourneys from tees below your tier.

    Also to stop players only posting their really low rounds set the game up so you cant start your next round until you have completed the round you're currently playing.

    This will stop withdrawals from tourneys and disconnections from ranked rounds due to poor play and then and only then will we see the true good players on WGT.

    I think all rounds should be counted Especially MPC included. Lowering ones average has no reflection at all but not Lowering ones average is a poor reflection, Thus promoting a Loophole for More sandbagging. Not having rounds counted in RG's is only going to Open a door for Those who can Have a 91 level 80 HC shooting off Pro tees with R11'S and not worry about an average drop.....

    Idealy MPC should count but we all know its close to impossible to Do as a true reflection on the round is not Possible as the winner will play the last shot on the Hole and loser will then be forced to be one stoke behind. Having said that it would be Eagle on a hole for a winner would force the other player to Get Bird. where he may not have even be in a position to Get that bird.

    Players need to think what is best for all and way forward to get the best ideas To WGT office. Combating Sandbagging is Prob The Biggest  issue on here.

    How about letting any legends with an average under 60 promote themselves to tour legend?

    That would jumpstart the new tier and would not require playing another hundred ranked rounds.

    For all of the others, the promotion would happen normally, after the hundred additional rounds with an average under 60.

    Until then, points I can remember.

     

    1. MisterWGT is playing Kiawah with the new pins. 
    2. Level 65+ equipment won't be available until the Pro tier
    3. TourLegend tier next update. Under 60 average with over 100 rounds from the update.
    4. Tournament wins will factor into tier advancement
    5. Multiple accounts are hard to prove
    6. Merion is a done deal

    That's all that stuck.  :-(

    Are you sure #3 is happening? I mean this is the only thing I see on forum so far as to saying it will happen. None of the other threads about the new update say anything about tour legend happening. I was the one that actually start the suggestion of tour legend, but to me sounds iffy, especially now thinking about it where are the tees going to be, and what are the green speeds?

    Well if this come to fruition this particular Legend will have played her last ranked round.   As a person who posts all her scores - is not selective and only posts the gooduns - I find the whole idea of the new tier offensive to my ability. 

    Good luck to all those who achieve it.

    See u all in MPC s
