  I am a casual player. I don't even play in any tournaments. I like to play the stroke play, and I hardly ever finish a round. I just play for fun, and this new tier makes it very difficult to enjoy the game because the tee is so far back. Can any of the admins help me out?

  Hi Ferrari, we are in the process of reevaluating tees. We cannot move you down a tier, but we may make other adjustments.

  Hi,

   

  I was wondering the same thing. I thought I would be in the Pro Tier not the Masters. I obviously don't belong with the golfers in the Masters tier.

  No kidding, the Masters Tier is BRUTAL!  I'll enjoy the game much more if I were downgraded

  I agree. I have been playing on WGT since Oct '08 and the Masters tees are incredibly difficult, especially during the qualifying round at Bethpage. I dont play everyday, so trying to do well here has been a real obstacle. I know WGT will fix this, they always have us in mind when it comes to things like this. Good luck everyone.

  Dusty,

  You state:  " especially during the qualifying round at Bethpage. "

   

  ALL tiers play from the Championship tees for qualifying.    Regardless of Hack/Ama/Pro.  So moving the tier would have no effect on the Open Qualifiers.

  You are wrong about that. I played my friend and he is playing off the Amerature tees while I play off the Master tees. It does matter alot. That is in Bethpage qualifier.

  All players play the same tees in the US Open qualifier.

  In multiplayer you play your tier's tees.

  If you can not adjust the tiers, why not adjust the clubs.  I can not hit 4 fairways at Bethpage without a tail wind.  I think the average driver should be 250.  That is about average for most golfers if the hit it good.
