    I'm just assuming we're not getting Shinnecock Hills.  Hope they give us something, anything new.  Getting boring here.

    Lack of info since TopGolf bought original owners out is deafening.
    They were aptly named The Hold-Your-Tongue Tribe of Bay Area long before TG arrived - each bit of information is treated as a business secret.

    Still, IMHO, the embers of communication are continuously extinguishing.

    This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Virtual U.S. Open on WGT in collaboration with the United States Golf Association (USGA). Over the past ten years, more than 4.2MM people have competed, playing over 28MM rounds on U.S. Open Championship courses!

    In celebration of this milestone, we've created a new course made up of the best holes from past U.S. Open Championships.

    Starting in March, you'll be able to compete in the 2018 Virtual U.S. Open on some of the country's most prestigious courses including Bethpage Black, Pebble Beach Golf Links, Congressional Country Club, The Olympic Club, Merion, Pinehurst No. 2, Chambers Bay, Oakmont Country Club and Erin Hills.

    This May-June, play in the Virtual U.S. Open Qualifier tournament for the chance to win a trip to Pebble Beach to experience the 2019 U.S. Open in person! 

    As part of our effort to grow and celebrate the game of golf we all love, the USGA and WGT are excited to announce the first-ever Virtual U.S. Amateur this year. This new virtual Championship will be played on the same course that the U.S. Amateur will be played this August, Pebble Beach, followed by Pinehurst Resort and Country Club in 2019.

    In 2020, the U.S. Amateur will be hosted at Bandon Dunes and as a result we'll be busy working on the full 18 holes of the iconic Bandon Dunes Golf Course. 

    We'll be sharing more details on the 2018 Virtual U.S. Open tournament and the new Virtual U.S. Amateur as we have them, so stay tuned!

    Got this reply from wgt.  Have to say it was prompt and courteous, notwithstanding a bit terse, not unexpectedly:

    Hi,
    Thank you for the message. Regrettably Shinnecock will not be one of the courses offered this year. Unfortunately we are unable to provide more information on this at this time.

    Best Regards,
    WGT Member Services

    It's supposed to be about 35-40, exclusive of posts to one's country club forum. But even after that many, a person may not be automatically taken off moderation. If that's the case, then just post a request to be taken off moderation on one of the moderator's wall.

    Been 2+ years for me and that's why I am spending no more  money here. I even sent a message asking and they never answer my question. My guess is they don't know why I am being silenced. LOL
