There's nothing wrong with you - some advance slow, some fast.
Yes, winning match play against higher tiers supports the advancement, and winning credits does so, too.
Alas, be careful what you wish for. The next tier, Master, tees up further back which may make the game considerably more difficult. New clubs may become necessary for happy gaming, and you may need a higher level to get them.
In your case, the coveted G20 club set is available from level 59 (88.000 XPs) - you are quite safe to get there in time. Perhaps your clubs will do, too - I can't tell. Alas, try to be at level 83 when you become Legend eventually :)
I have two additional hints for you:
- get rid of these Starter wedges if you can, replace them by some custom clubs. Your short game will win!
- play some of the free tournaments. They cover all the courses, sometimes even the expensive ones, and confront you with different competition situations: unlimited and single play tournaments. It doesn't matter if you fare well or not, the experience is priceless. if you want some more competition, look up http://www.parsbirdsandeagles.blogspot.de/.
The second good reason to play these is the double XPs which you will get, taking you towards better clubs in shorter time.
Most of all: Have fun!!
