Hi srflan,
Sounds like you might be having an issue with flash causing your swing meter to jump. Please follow the steps below to optimize your browser and see if this helps. Game mechanics do not change based on your opponent.
- Trouble shooting steps and system requirements, particularly clearing the browser and Flash cache:

- Close other programs, browser windows and browser tabs
- Have the wgt.com website open but minimized and not displayed
- Play WGT in the original window size, do not maximize it to full screen
- Turn off Reflections, Flag Animation, Background Loading, Avatar rotations, and WGT Lessons in your Options
All the Best,
