Ish, based on your post I just now downloaded Maxthon cloud browser and played a round...meter was smooth as silk, a very pleasant surprise. Adblocker+ comes with it and that made things even better.
Interesting thing about the new tiers and how wgt is calculating averages: I was well into saturation before the update, probably over a thousand rounds as TL. My first round after the update was a 27 and my average reset to 54. Second round was a 29 and my average remains at 54. I can only guess that if one has accumulated enough rounds for saturation, the first round after the update establishes a baseline and all subsequent scores above the baseline are discarded.
In essence, a saturated TL could shoot one decent round to establish a baseline then go out and shoot 199 more rounds with the starter ball and get promoted to Champion tier (and get 250 credits! yay!) regardless of the scores. Time will tell if my theory is correct...but if this is the case, it's a pretty hollow achievement.
But...we're still faced with the screwed up camera situation. We can use the mini-map camera on some holes to get the fairway to green view, but not nearly enough...makes it very tough to line up approaches properly. In addition, putting graphics are still screwed up, sometimes very choppy and very often the ball looks like it's jumping out of the hole.
