  Or for people to see how much you won and start asking you to gift them clubs as if it wasnt already bad with the 200 friend invites i get a day asking for gifts.

  It doesn't take a genius to work out how much players have won. They've only got to look at the RG leaderboards.

  True thats why i said this is making it worse and difference in that is i may have won 800 a month but that does not count my wds. 10800 made in a hole in one is 10800 no short cut around it. But if they want to broadcast how much is made in hole in ones then they need to count those winnings against career earnings as they currently dont or id been number one last month by a long shot lol i had 5 or 6 aces last month 2 are not on that list.

  What about the players who get a hole-in-one and does't play the Hole-in-One challenge.

  But WGT dont make any $ off these people. So why promote that?

  The community spotlight just needs to go away, whether it is for score, average, earnings, hole in ones, etc. we just don't need it on that page.

  I would love to see a record board that shows all the top stats from all the players, I think everyone would like to know that from the comments in the forums.  Longest drive, longest putt made, lowest score per course, etc.  Why not spend time working on that instead of something that no one wants.

  some how some way it has to be a marketing thing.  showing advertisers or investers just how mahy credits are flying around or some junk like that.  similar to 'member #'s"

  don't mean much to you and me but there has to be a rea$on

  +1

  Even if they just showed which holes were Aced the most per month  would be better than what they're doing now.

  QUOTE, "hole in one winners", and so I prerequisite the below by assuming we will only be talking HIO challenge. 

  Can't get the Par 3 Stats out the already paltry stats offering, but a chance to highlight a (cough), "winning" HIO challenge and fanfare time! Brings nothing to the table IMO! 

  In the unlikely event I ever mistakingly take a HIO challenge with the odds offered I would prefer to not have my stupidity advertised! No chance of any one working on that bit more than getting the par 3 stats debacle sorted any time soon.................My shout, and no disrespect to the people who took up the, IMO, so called challenge, that's their shout!

  IRL quickly looking quicky the following rang a bell:

  “a low handicap player to have 5,000 to one odds, while an average handicap player had 12,000 to one odds."  

  How many HIOs at Meriion short 1 IRL last what 38 years? -  best in world trying:)

  I wonder how all those odds translate to here? That's before you look at the potential return! As said in my opening preamble though I am assuming this is about HIO challenge only.  Should there be no mention of dollars, and all saved HIOs in the box, no distinction's my gripes are null and void.  In fact I had a hole in one a few days ago, happily with the challenge firmly off, and will be happy to enthuse about my "experience". I welcome clarity from Shoe on the point!

  In fairness to the OP trying sound up beat about this nonsense (if my assumption's correct) can't be a long straw task, even if it is virtually!
