  What is a ranked round?

  How many more do I need to play?

   

  I am under 100.00 average, so all I need to play is 5 RR or less?!?

  Congrats to your achievement of Amateur tier.

  Now, it's 10 ranked strokeplay rounds and an 80 average to advance to Pro (full list posted here many times).

  Par3 and Par5 courses will not count, nor any practice rounds nor Skins, CTTH, Blitz, Alternate Shot.

  Since the advancement in Levels is important as well, I suggest to play tournaments (CC or weeklies) and to secure you the Continuous Day Bonus.

  Such practice will help you to hone your skills.

  (full list posted here many times).

  here it is btw 

  • When your average score is equal or smaller than 100 you go from hack to amateur.
  • When it is equal or smaller than 80 you go from amateur to pro.
  • When it is equal or smaller than 72 you go from pro to tour pro
  • When it is equal or smaller than 67 you go from tour pro to Master
  • When it is equal or smaller than 63 you go from Master to Tour master
  • When it is equal or smaller than 61 you go from Tour master to legend 
    
  • When it is equal or smaller than 60 you go from Legend to Tour Legend*

  and

  • you need to play at least 5 ranked rounds as hack before reaching Amateur
  • you need to play at least 10 ranked rounds as amateur before reaching Pro
  • you need to play at least 20 ranked rounds as Pro before reaching Tour pro
  • you need to play at least 25 ranked rounds as Tour pro before reaching Master
  • you need to play at least 40 ranked rounds as Master before reaching Tour Master
  • you need to play at least 50 ranked rounds as Tour Master before reaching Legend
  • You need at least 500 ranked rounds as Legend before reaching Tour Legend
    

  Notice that those minimal number of ranked rounds are also the number of best rounds used to compute your average in that particular tier. So if you are Tour Master for example, your average is computed with your best 50 ranked round (that's why you need at least 50 rounds to move up).
