Can PC Players compete against Mobile Players?

  I’m a mobile player only and still relatively new to the game.  I’ve been starting to have some fun playing my club tournaments and even a few general tournaments.  In a recent bracket based tourney, I checked out some of the profiles on guys that were also playing.  I saw several guys were Champion level and had sub 50 scoring averages.  (Note to self, don’t enter tierless tourneys LOL).  

  First question, can guys enter the tournaments that I enter, and play from their PC?  Or am I only playing against mobile players?

  2nd question sort of tied to the first:  are there Mobile only players out there that have sub 50 averages?!

  I honestly think I could play every day for 5 years and frequently buy new gear, and never do that.

  I’m thinking that maybe some guys have the same profile but sometimes play from a PC and sometimes play on their mobile.  So I see their overall profile stats, but when I’m playing them at least they are playing from their mobile device.  Is that correct?

  By the way I was proud of my 1 ace until I looked at these guys stats!  :-) :-)

  ^This. Try it yourself the next time you're in front of a PC. Log on to WGT and you'll see.  :-)

   

  p.s., No such thing as apparel to help on the PC, either. Different platforms preclude cross-play, too.

  #1 I believe the answer is yes . Although players can not play across the different platforms against each other in A/S or M/P . The tournaments are a different situation . Tournaments  such as CTTH or Bracketts and RGs are single player events . The pc platform has all of the courses and game types . I dont believe the mobile platform is yet set up the same way . If not you may find yourself being the one who is left out as a mobile player .

  #2 There are a few new clubs that are recruiting as mobile only clubs . Not sure as to the club names but have seen them post here in the forums . Use the search >>>> and use mobile clubs as your search title .

  Some players do play both game versions since the pc version is the original game version . Its way easier to play to my understanding since you have a bigger screen , and using a mouse . Not sure about the averages but so far only mobile can play against mobile . They may get it together and create a cross platform and combine both versions of the game . But as of now its not possible .
