  While you're looking down your nose at the players who tried the Clash, make sure you notate your own Country Club mates who are doing pretty well in the Clashes. I'm sure they wouldn't mind having that mark next to their names that you speak of.

  Just saying.... ;) 

  Ya I saw that... I was told WT was sitting it out, I haven't played that's for sure. I guess that like some say there are those within a CC that just jump on and do it. I just did my bit and did what I said I'd do. I'm pretty sure the vast majority of WT stayed out of it. 

  But no you're right, and I'm not biased in anyway, I don't care who you are - If you were around for the last Clash, have knowledge of what a farce it is and you still chose to click the button and consciously buy cc passes and play - stand in line for your 'tag' man cuz you earned it!

  If you're a new player, don't know and for whatever reason played with your free pass, then ya, no not going to flog someone for that. 

  In the end, just sad people can't see it's the players who can affect change and get things fixed. WGT put this place up - but it's our game, we pay the bills.

  I suppose your opinion is as valid as any other. With that in mind I can see members not giving a damn what you think about them playing in the Clash or not. ;)

  I'm very proud to say Bridgestone Golf is currently in 1,073rd place.

  I really don't understand why that phrase is being thrown around so much. Everything we ever buy from anywhere is a cash grab. It's business.

  I think because in order to have any chance of doing well you have to buy passes, the free ones do diddly squat.

  You can win the virtual US Open without buying anything extra if you have good clubs and balls, clashes are the only thing that require you to spend more in order to stand any chance of finishing well.

  They're leading because they've played more and scored better.

   

  The first part of that sentence shows why some are calling it a cash grab.

  I said earlier they seem to be out to show they can win it without "cheating".  Have lots of members seems to be the main criteria.

  If you say so but in a golf tournament, even a virtual golf tournament, skill usually plays the largest part in deciding who wins.  When that is close to level luck may decide it.

  This is decided almost entirely by which club buys the most passes/pays the most money- hence cash grab.  If there actually was an auction for it that would be business (and probably more honest) this is meant to be a competition.

  I'm sorry WGT but you are going to have to do much better than that.

  Has anyone thought of creating a donation pool for the CC that comes in dead last? Too late on this clash but maybe the next one? And you know there will be another & another....  until no one plays.
