So the game decides according to your level & scoring...the player has no way to change it manually. Interesting. I played against someone the other day who told me they took a screen shot of my avatar. I didn't get where he was going so I just responded "cool". Then he started ranting about "hitting off the ladies tee" and he was going to "send it to them" when we got done playing. Insinuating that I was doing something wrong. I was under the assumption that the AI decided it so I ignored him. As it turns out, it appears I was correct.
Your assumption is correct. You have very few ranked rounds, those are what will advance you in tier, you probably play a lot of coin rounds, those do nothing but advance you in level. WGT needs to change something, a level 87 TP should not still be hitting from the front tees, so you cannot change anything. If you were to set up practice rounds, in stroke play, then you can assign what tees all play from, be careful what you ask for.
