  I have heard this term many times. Can someone please tell exactly what "saturation" is and is it a reality??

  Yes, it's very real. Type saturation in the search box for 10 pages of answers.

  It has been so for any of your tier promotions since 2011. Last one was at 5/28/18 - see your score history.

  BTW: You have a chance to secure your ranked rounds number from there, just in case you'd be looking forward to Legend saturation some 500 rounds later ;)

  Ok..in YOUR TIER you will get an average that can not got up...only down...you have "saturated"" in YOUR TIER.

   

  So keep swinging and have fun!

  YJ did so, more than just giving the information.

  There's a saying about gifting fishing-rods vs. gifting fish ;)

  "Give a man a fish - he eats for a day.  Teach a man to fish - he eats for a lifetime".

  (and you don't have to come up with an extra fish every day!)

  Better hope someone keeps that fish pond stocked and no one contaminates the water source killing all the fish and vegetation... just because you can fish doesn't mean you are always going to catch something or fish will always be in abundant supply... but the idea is simple enough.

  As has been said it is real.

  Very roughly; your average at the moment is a real average of all your completed rr's at Legend.  When you have played your 501st round at that tier this will no longer be the case.  That round will replace your worst score and that process will continue, each score replacing the worst one included in your average, until your average is 60 and you tier up again. 

  BOP 3 + 5 and custom courses don't count, red tee does. 

  As it looks like you've been a Legend for a while and have about 50rr's played (a guess-I didn't count them) it's going to be a while until you are saturated.
