  WGTicon:

  I wonder if Pebble Beach has 40+mph gusts. That would be sweet!

  -WGTicon

  Ah, playing coy again, Icon?  That's what we love about you ;).

  This would be quite the coup for WGT, but I'm hesitant to get my hopes up too much yet (still nursing the RLSA & Muirfield letdowns from '12 & '13). The article is distinctly different from news we've heard here.  Last reports on Bandon was that it was a 9 hole "best of par 3s" not 18, and that we wouldn't be getting Pebble until possibly the next time it was on the Open rota in '19. Also, no mention of Pinehurst, which on a different thread Icon confirmed would open for stroke play in May.

  It says, play CTTH now, play an extention in "multi-years"

  - I preview 2019: US Open venue Pebble Beach.

  Don't expect any more.

  +1 Alosso.... lol.  I love how they word the shite.  Takes a rocket scientist to figure it out. I would bet a lawyer wrote that......lmao!

  I would bet anything you would be lucky to see Pebble Beach in 2019.

  Hey.... only five more years to see if true.   :))

  Another dangling of the bait move....... good job WGT!    ;)

  No...lol.  What is said was WGT has strengthened their partnership with a multi-year agreement which includes a 18 hole stroke play course..... expanding on the current CTTH course that is hosting Virtual Tour this month.

  LOL...... i love the this month part.  That is the part that all the players are looking at.

  Read it very carefully.   Nope...... no 18 hole Pebble coming soon.  :)

  Alosso knows whats up for sure....lol. Hard to get one past him...... hehe.

  I'm so confident..... i will bet any credit amount on it.  Any takers??

  They're trying to lure more new players. Yes, you can bet the farm a lawyer had his hand in writing that.

  Sorry boys no Pebble Beach full stroke this year

  Sorry.... the Virtual Tour is being played on Pebble Beach now. Not to mention they just took the CTTH Pebble course out of moth balls not to long ago. They been having this CTTH forever.

  Maybe they are talking about the 2019 Virtual Tour..... hehe.

  Please do not get you're hopes up. That is what this company loves to do. Alosso spotted that shite a mile off....lol.

  It is what it is.  This company's motto.  ;)

  I'm not so good on longer English texts...

  The (2014?) WGT Virtual Tour will be held on [...] the upcoming additions of [...] Pebble Beach Golf Links®.

  might include more than Pebble CTTH, Alas, I don't see this as a promise, and I don't believe in promises here.

  It may be a mistake/"mistake" from Pinehurst which should definitely be in this tour(?) - their announcement was firm enough.
