BeachedMulligan:
It amazes me people find a way to complain about anything. You dont wanna pay shipping, sell the damn card.
Your buying something from the USGA, take a guess at what US stands for. You qualified for the US Open, hmmm still cant figure it out?
Icon needs a raise.
The tournament was open to players worldwide. Therefore you would have thought that WGT would have figured out that some non-American people might actually qualify and win a gift card.
And this you would think might actually lead WGT to investigate shipping costs to the rest of the world and realise that the gift voucher wouldn't be worth a damn to us.
The cheapest item on the site (a golf pin) costs $50 dollars to ship to Ireland.
I spent a lot of money on balls etc to qualify, I am not giving it away for free.
WGT at the very least should allow these vouchers be exchanged for credits.
This also happened in reverse a few years ago.
Remember the KLM tournament?
The prize was tickets to the R/L KLM Open golf tournament in Holland which started about 3 days after the virtal tournament ended.
A lot of americans won tickets but obviously couldn't use them, and nor indeed could I.
The whole marketing department in WGT should be sacked if they think that this kind of rubbish is good enough
