The most eagerly awaited event in virtual golf is almost with us.
It's been several years in the making* and now it's finally here. Whole threads have been written about it, and at last we dispense with the anticipation, and show our true allegiances.
The best players in the world will take on the toughest of courses in the premier event in the online world.
What is it, you may ask… ?
All will be revealed….
Yes, you guessed it… It's the...
… Uneven Lies Ryder Cup @ Olympic, the 3rd edition of the hardest event on WGT for the elite of online virtual golf.
Team ROW won the initial UEL Ryder Cup @ Merion last year; the cup was wrested back in decisive fashion by Team USA @ Pinehurst last September/October, and now 24 of the very best players on WGT will battle it out for the Cup once again.
Team ROW have assembled what is perhaps the strongest team ever to visit American soil. Led by the inimitable fmagnets (unquestionably the leading player in the world right now), the team includes such legends of the game as Priestess and sebicu (2nd top earner of all time), the dominant German contingent of KonradOse, johehejo and FairwayReupel68, and exciting leading Legend rookies in JoeMaverick (the Nic Colsaerts of team ROW, perhaps!) and emmalinks (the new Sergio, perhaps!).
On paper, Team USA have the weaker team through qualifying, but boast some of the very best UEL players, not least bhoese and skipper ColumbusStorm. They even have Icon himself on the team, partnered by KyRock75, reenacting their Twitch double-act, lol!
It promises to be a classic encounter at Olympic. We're hoping that a number of matches will be streamed and recorded over the coming 3 weeks, as we play first Fourballs, then AltShot, then finally the Singles series.
Come along and follow the thread and support your chosen team!
First matches start Saturday, January 24th!

* well, since the Olympic course was launched in UEL in 2012!
