  Hi

  I have a pretty simple formula for Tourney speed greens.  Hit 75% and then add (or subtract) 1ft for each 1" uphill (- for 1" downhill).  Shorter putts (less than 8ft) need to be closer to 85/90%.   Works for me so good luck

  I have not been playing enough to notice - were 14 greens showing up before Tour Champion was announced?

  The WGT weekly single play has had 14.5 greens for a long time. IMO, WGT should have made 14 the default speed for the TC tier. Not sure I understand why they didn't.

  Yes.

  I remember as a legend lvl 70s a few years back playing Readygo on Cabo with 14 speed greens.
