  Hey so I just moved up to the tour master tier and was wondering what average I have to be at to turn legend. Not that I'm rushing or trying to rush but just want to know what the goal is so i can look forward to it in the future.

  Thanks!

   

  61 is your goal as stated previously. The number of rounds required I'm not 100% sure of but I'm thinking 50 as after that amount of ranked rounds your average will not go up again and  from then on your average is based on your top 50 scores.

   

   

  This could  be made up of:

  10 @ 60

  10 @ 61

  30 @ 62.

  Average =  3070 (strokes) / 50  =  61.4

  Hitting a score of 62 will not now affect your average, hit a score of 61 and one of the 62's will  drop from your top 50 scores and be replaced by the 61 leaving you now with a top 50 score list of :

  10 @ 60

  11 @ 61

  29 @ 62.

  Average = 3069 (strokes) / 50 =  61.38

   

  A TM with the above stats now requires to shoot a minimum of 30 over 9 holes or 61 over 18 for their average to drop.

  It doesn't matter what course you score on, it's purely the number of strokes taken per round.

   

  *Anyone know the number of rounds required when a legend's average ceases to rise -  if ever?

  once your average becomes below 61 you will become legend. But also need to have rounds in aswell, That number seems to be around 300.

  There seems to be about 20 different answers in here to the same questions.

  To get Legend you need to have an average of 61 or less.

  You also need to have played at least 50 ranked rounds at Tour Master.

  Also your average will never go up as a legend after you have played 400 rounds as a legend.

  Yes 400 ranked rounds as a legend. not 400 rounds total.
