    Bummer. 

    2,000cr means almost nothing to the top 156 players in this game. Atleast we got something of value when we prove were in the top tier of this game.

    How about giving something like a Avatars Golf Bag that shows US Open Pinehurst No. 2? That way we atleast can prance around on our little ponies on the tee box and pretend we won something.

    LOL. Lot easier to throw 2000 credits down than deal with the barrage of "Where's my hat?" complaints.  :D

    Not worth grinding without the hat.

    Unless Dick's, Nike, or some other sponsor is going to foot the bill, I can't see WGT reaching into their own pockets and spending anything that we as users don't put up. Call me a skeptic, but I haven't seen anything to make me think different since I've joined.  Even the recent free balls,  whiskey or beer,  were paid for by someone else, not WGT. Understandably so, I might add,  they're trying to run a business and turn a profit while doing so.

    That is the exact reason that WGT made the "get free nikes balls with 2K credits" this weekend past, as pinehurst is released this week.
