  CC stroke play rounds are ranked so they have to be played from the tee that goes with each Tier.

  WGT can change that any time it chooses. Look back at that Kiawah tournament when they let all the masters thru tour legends play from the white tees (pro) and a guy popped out a 49:)

  It can be done!

  Fine point. I forgot about the all players specials. The thing is, CC's could just have all their tourneys from the ladies tees and everybody's average would go down as a result.

  I'd really like to be able to choose tees hole by hole.... for variety. Especially par 3s. I can see, for example, playing 15 holes from the back tees in a tournament, but changing up a couple of par 3s and making a par 4 drive-able by moving up to the pro tees. This is done all the time, including at the Opens. Or you could alternate between legend and master tees; all kinds of possibilities. It'd be fun. Just classify those tourneys as practice if you're so worried about playing from the "right" tees for ranked rounds.
