  Would be great to see what the leading scores are before entering these tournaments but the leaderboard never seems to load/show prior to playing..

  It appears ok when you finish playing a game though..just wondering

  That is how WGT has the leader board for Ready-Gos set up. The leader  board is not accessible until all 50 players have entered and the 12 hour count down has begun.

  you'd be hard pressed to get many people to enter one when there is already a crazy low score...or two posted.

  happens in my CC all the time...someone shoots well..no one enters. or not many..

  Exactly .. imagine opening up a leaderboard for a RG and seeing someone shot a 27 or 28 ... how many people do you think would sign up for it ...... My guess is you would never get 50 and it would stay open forever.

  True Lou but at least there would be a few idiots like me who might sign up just to have a chance to win a few credits. Many of the Paid CC tourneys the person setting up the tourney makes it winner take all so unless it's a very low buy in I won't play if there has been a  very low score posted. And as i work nights most of the time by the time I even get to sign-up for our CC tourneys the best players have already posted something like a 28 or 29. If it's a normal free CC tourney I will play for the practice but if it a paid tourney I don't unless the pay-out is top 5 or top 10.

  hahaha... that reminds me the first time I entered a Ready-Go. I was Pro back then. I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I finished 37th out of 50. Not so bad! Well let me say that 12 players withdrawn in that tourney. ;-0

  Imagine you could see everyone who entered and did not post yet. Bollox, Lee, Angeltotti, Price, Priestess, etc. all in the same round! I'd join my voice to the myriad who say "screw that!, I'll pass."

  Heck ... that's what our country club tourneys are like .... just take priestess off that list ... and to bollox, lee, price, and angel ..... add coolswing, ahudd, timpyron, jakestanfill, etc. etc. 

  Trust me it's tuff to enter a tourney (and we do no credit tourneys) knowing your best game will finish in the bottom half of the field :) ...

  Still .. gotta love it !!!!!!!!!
