    The putting stats are horrible.  I can't even begin to figure out what they're trying to communicate.  For example, the breakdown of putts based on length is a complete disaster.  I'm assuming they're trying to say the percentage made from each distance, but if that is the case the numbers simply can't be right. 

    As others have mentioned, putts per round is a joke. If it is really counting a 9 hole game as a round, that's silly.  There are two super simple solutions if that's the case, either: (1) Add 2 9 hole putting rounds to make 18 (do not include one 9 hole in the mix until another 9 is played), or (2) take each 9 hole putting number times 2.  The first is the more accurate method; the second is the easiest. 

    Also as others have stated, it would be excellent to have cumulative stats AS WELL AS RECENT STATS.  Either a time period (3, 6 or 12 months would probably be best) or make it from the last number of rounds (50, 100 or 200?).

    I understand these things don't generate money, but having them in the first place is silly if they don't mean anything.  And it's not like these things would take days of programming.

    Stats reset to your tier would be better than lifetime ones.

    Filterable would be even better.  :-)

    One thing WGT does well is make money so let's not assume it can't happen!

    Putting average? Stats.... This isn't a golf game, there is nothing within this game which is based on real golf. As a digital representation of the game of golf it fails in so many ways its just laughable.

    The fact that anyone plays this game amazes me, the fact that any professional golfer and/or organization would associate with this game just blows me away. I suspect ol' Dave has no idea how this game actually plays, because as a golfer at his level I can only imagine what he'd think with not being able to execute something as simple as closing the club face or actually picking the ball out of the bunker.

    Stats... lol...

    Self-Amazement?

    I was told doing that could make you go blind!
