    Sorry but I just couldn’t help but reply to this:

    What a nonsense question really. The course and the layout are the same as on the real course. So the yardages are equal. If on a PGA tournament they decide to move the tees up to make it more of an exciting hole for spectators that’s one thing, but expecting the online game to change tee boxes just so you can get the “gamers” joy of hitting it on the green seems a bit far fetched J

    Additionally, the longest drivers in this game are 289yards plus whatever length the ball gives you. That is fixed,- whatever he pros manage to hit is based on their abilities… so that’s maybe why a game and real life is different J … Just saying … you are a champion man, so you should know all this way better than me!

                                                         Hole 15th at ERIN

    I have had little luck from the long tees reaching the green.

    Maybe others have.

    But the word is - the real life US Open will play as a drivable par-4 for at least one championship round, and perhaps more.

    Why has WGT not allowed golfers from the long tees to reach this in one shot?

     



    I have played the qualifier 4 times and reached # 15 twice. It

    might have been 3 but I missed the ding too badly.

    did you take advantage of some bounce or how did you reach it? even with heavy tailwind I never even came close

    Could be the camera angles.

    So far no one has driven this green from the back tees. They would probably move it up over the weekend to make it drivable, as would WGT in the actual VUSO.

    I have played a 6 Times and 4 Practice and reached it 4 times. Lol, Long putts. Wind behind me and full Backspin off the tee

    going for that green is not a smart play. Leaves a downhill putt or a very tough chip. Better to lay up and hit a wedge in
