  Reaching L300?! It's a joke, right?

  Then how could ico**** become Tour Champion?? She He's "only" at L105 currently.

  Its just another ploy to make players chase their tails again . A WGT money grab and nothing else . They keep acting like they dont know how to promote players to that tier and probably havent done the programming  either . They would have to come up with a new green speed thats fair and sensible . The speeds that were added to the cc were stupid and make no sense .

   But the solution that I offered was to take the top 250 Champion money earners and promote them to Tour Champion . Also whoever wins the virtual Open should also be promoted as well . Of course this wont change anything when it comes to playing the Open but its a  good solution for promoting players . The whole thing is nothing but a crock any way since its supposed to be by invitation only .

  Lol, Simon. I believe it is yet another bug on mobile. The confusion occurs because you supposedly receive 300 credits when reaching TC. So I think it should read "Earn 300 credits at Tour Champion".

  But I like lonniescott711's explanation, too!

  Only thing I take from this is that the fee credits @ level 300 are different than those earned @ levels 299 and below. WGT has named the credits @ 300 level are called 'Tour Champion Free Credits'.

  PS: This is on the mobile sight, where I've seen Tour Pros @ level 57 with 150 stroke average.

   Someone who is supposed to be moderating all day would not be a level 105 TC. Do the math people.

  Hey Scott,
  Your idea sounds reasonable enough to me.

  Hi Mick,
  Yeah, I guess that's what it's supposed to mean, but maybe WGT did it deliberately to give us a hint. BTW, good to talk to you again, m8. :-)

  Huh??!! Just wonder what the WGT programmers were smokin' before the update.

  Sorry, renniw52... I don't quite follow you on this one.
