  Your "average" is based on the rounds you have played the the tier you are in. When you went up a tier, the number of rounds reset to 0. You shot a 41 for 9 holes which equates to an 82 for 18. this was your first round as a Master so it became your new "average". Your 41, 37, and 70 scores as a Master equal 226 shots or your average of 75.33 per round. (226 divided by 3)

  When you jump up a tier, your average will start over with the first score you post. Don’t worry like all the rest of us you will have to work it back down. I hope you did not make the mistake I did when I jumped from TP to Master and play your first round at Marion against 2 Legends and a Champ. There was no way I was ready for the tee box jump and 13 speed greens at the same time…..LOL I got hung with a starting average of 88 if I remember correctly.

  Wow, that stinks. I'm usually very protective of my average when I change tiers. At least until I get used to the changes. Your well on your way to Champion Now. Kudos

  Not saturated yet?

  Anyway, saturation will take care of the wayward scores - no need from that side to protect anything!
  OTOH, they may tickle your ego ;)
