andyson:May unique US visitors was up 19% over April with the introduction of Chambers Bay. Althoug still lagging behind at 65% of last year's May total.
Apologies if stated early or clear as a bell and I just don't see it (v likely, LOL), but can we tell if that includes any mobile visitor data.
The desperation of letting the under cooked new ideas department run riot with every whacko idea going would lead me to think nothing is going near what is needed.
IMO growing it by remembering what made the game fantastic would be a good start, but the new ideas people disagree and seem to get a free run. One daft idea to the next, and all with more not fixable bugs sadly has been too much of the staple diet. In fairness a part of the old WGT still exists, and we got a great new course in CB.
Looking at those stats quick which part caused the increased interest in the site? I can't see the new ideas had anything to do with it personally, but rather the part that made the place fantastic to start with..
