CharlemagneRH:As far as the CTTH competitions go, I know he does those repeatedly... over and over, dozens and dozens of times.
Anyone that plays CTTH does that, like stroke play there is some luck involved. If you don't get the right wind or vemmie rears it's ugly head, it can ruin a round. You only have 9 shots, so you need to be on target every time. Persistence does pay off...
Hey anyone that can Par #17 @ St Andrews with a 30 MPH wind in their face from the Championship tees, is pretty damn lucky in my book - it's something I'll never accomplish, but give me the right wind & I got a better than even chance of it.
CharlemagneRH:He plays them over and over again, and he's one of only a few of the elite players that really does that.
I don't know, check the top 25 in the KLM Open again - lots of familiar names that you don't see in the monthly and weekly CTTH tourney's. The valuable prizes attract the better players and they usually do very well, so there's gotta be some skill involved.
CharlemagneRH:As far as andyson's post goes, I haven't played that CTTH before. Is it easier than the others? If not, I can't explain how someone could produce sub-60 scores consistently.
I wouldn't say it's easier many, including myself, have shot in the 50's, my lowest on any course is around a 45 - a 38 is extraordinary.
As Andyson said, it appears this person has been given a timeout, probably permanently. What I find interesting is, if he in fact did attain this score fraudulently, why did WGT pay him his "winnings", which they have done before when cheaters have been caught... Seriously, It's really not sour grapes since I came in 2nd in the tourney he shot the 38.... ;-)
