    We are not making that information public. However, the top tier will be invite only, so it's not possible to get placed there.

    -WGTicon

    I'm wondering what logic would cause you to keep it secret. It would seem to me that if you want increased play, you would at the very least, post what qualifications are required and what green speeds or conditions one would find at the "next" level. I don't get it.

    Cheers,

    Shot a 63 at StAndies and my ave went up from 64.91 to 66.55.

     

    The most annoying thing is now we all have that bloody message in game window - move to Champion tier and earn 250 credits.

    It has always been secret, unpublished by the company. You have come all the way to TL without their direct information, it has all been elaborated by the community. Why should it be different now, what is different for you?

    The reason has been given here often enough: Anti-Cheat, Anti-Sandbagging.

    Well that last post proves my point.  Too many thin skinned people that can't take a joke anymore.  Really sad and pathetic.

    isn't that a hypocritical statement, you were referring to the 1 that was made to you........lmfao.

    It would be interesting to get the overall vision more than we have though - well for a laugh if nothing else :).

    I suspect green speeds at the next level are work in process.  All I see, based on what we have so far, is a small and rather silly sugar rush for a badge.  After that I see a rather pretentious and nonsense invite only offer (only have what we have thus far to go on and that in mind, and strongly suggest real parameters that make sense)...So New Ideas get to choose - would that be the same New Ideas in charge of the Clash Debacle, and the team who can't work out that a view finder is for looking through not taking the picture with ?  

    No offense personally to any one at all but to WGT it's looking like the usual  rubbish one expects from New Ideas, and sad a great chance missed to actually do something useful.  

    Now accepting nothing will have been thought through beyond the short usual nose I hope the tune gets changed, and something useful comes out of this - well whilst there is hope even it's called the Forlorn Hope Troop for a reason around here.

    Good job on the green dots - finally look fixed.  Whoever did that can we have then back to turn the cameras back the right way please, and let New Ideas do what they are best at - creating v silly things that go nowhere and no one asked for or wanted and that few usually bother with for long if at all, just keep them away from the actual game - I FANKU.

    Your are all on the wrong way:

     

    Champion Tier is only for players with 75 years and older

    Soft Conditions : soft balls, no wind, short ties and soft holes.

     

    Tour Champions are for players they are round about 100 years and going blind.

     

     

    They have the same conditions like the Champs before, but includet with Skype Telefon Service from WGT.

    Just shot my first post-update ranked round; shot below my average by almost 4 strokes, and my average went down .08

    For me still bad also than red tee count on average, but it's not the problem for now, so many bugs, and glitchs to be fixed

    Still i never understand why red tee count on average...

    Maybe they are not favouring red tees then ?? Doubt it, probably just that you have so few TL rounds and the new 700 needed is a factor.

    Mind you you would know the exact calc ???  maybe reds can affect it a little less ???? should not at all IMO, but is what is...

    This tournament was from the back tees, Jimbo- so forget that theory.
