  Unlimited play WGT Championship tournaments, why?

  There should be a week of unlimited practice, and the following week should be four 18 hole single play rounds.

  MisterWGT, it's as simple as that.

  Whatever your username is you are a disgrace to this game. Level 92 pro with better equipment than the folks who deserve it.

  Don't bother, Shiner, he flaunts it and loves to rub it in your face.

  Those who have the time to grind & grind all day long (will probably see the top 10 at least with these scores = 52 or a 53) compared to ones who dont grind, who are not unemployed, have a family and play it maybe 3 or 4 times and get a 57

   

  Chris,

  It's not going to take the top players "grinding" to turn in low scores, this is from the Blue tees..moderate wind...only 15 becomes a tad harder.

  DANG .... 

  i like'd the KIAWAH format...

  the only reason i played was it had a RANDOM draw chance in it too...

  so no need for me to even TRY.. 

  in a weird way it made it even more enjoyable also as i watched it on TV... kinda felt like i was part of the turny... 

  Now i just feel kinda sad..even tho i knew it was a long shot anyway to even hit the random drawing ... it was still a shot.. 

  BUT ..after seeing what appear'd to me,,, WGT giving out big prizes to a few THAT sure looked fishy to me anyway.. 

  i really don't know what to think ... 

  oh well .. im sorry i did whine a lil... 

  peace... GL GL to the top 10

  tourney a few hours old & already a 50 !.....Unreal WGT, how about a real PGA like tourney, such as single play from the Tour legend tees & championship greens..........&... No restarts!

  That should separate a few folks..

  What I would like to know is, how is it even possible to shoot a 20+ under in one round? I looked at the Bethpage tourney leaderboard and the guy shot a 50. How? is there some kind of cheat going on? Cause it sure seems like it and if there is then obviously the guys who aren't cheating have no chance.

  Maybe WGT wants to boost the TL core so they can have competition within a decent sized tier. Not a bad way to get there.  :-)
