I'm just wondering.....when will the Tour Champion level start to be populated ? It's been around for quite some time now and there is still only one person in that tier as far as I can tell.
It would certainly help make the Ready Go tournaments more competitive for us players that are in the Champion Tier but not at the elite level as players like FMagnets, Sebicu, KonradOse, Frenchconnect, etc to name a few. Why are these players not already in the Tour Champion tier ? These are all players, and there are others I am sure, with over 10,000.00 worth of credit winnings from playing Ready Go's and other tournaments. (I think there are even some players in the 100,000.00 and over range in winnings).
For instance, the monthly 200 credit tournaments that pay out big credits to only the Top 3 spots are almost always won by one of these "elite" players. In fact it's rare when any of the top 3 are not one of these "elite" players.
While I tip my cap to all of them, isn't it about time that they get put in the Tour Champion tier and let them beat up on each other ? That would give us more middle of the road Champion Tier players at least a sniff of a chance in those kinds of tournaments.
Why is this important ?
Because if you can win some nice paying tournaments every now and then you can keep yourself supplied with balls without having to hit the real money from a credit car, PayPal, etc.
In the lower tiers as players get better they get bumped up, leaving a more equitable and competitive lower tier.
God forbid, I don't want to sound like a socialist here but leaving these guys in the Champion Tier is like making club pros or really good club players play with the likes of Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy. Jordon Speith, etc.
So what say, WGT ? When will you start to populate that tier ?
