    tiffer67:

    The ability to tee up on either the left, centre or right of the tee.

    A view on the break of your opponents putt, handy for concession purposes.

    Two of the best suggestions I have seen in a long time.  Add to this the ability to see the putting grid for all players in the match. 

    Here is another idea:  you know when you're in a match and you go to your profile page and you can see all the players names, the current hole and the current score of the match you're in.  How about being able to see this same info on any profile page of any player currently in a match.  When seeing a friend is already in a match, I've often wondered who are they playing, and how are they doing.

     Just voicing my opinion here, but I think the putting grid should stay as is, and only to be seen by the player making his shot or putt. Some of us, play Alt shot matches on the ladder site, I feel there it would give to much advantage in some cases.  Just my 2 cents on that.

    What I'd like to see from WGT, is practice rounds available on tournament greens. Hey! just sayin, I'm older and sometimes forget the simple, and accidentally post rounds in the 40's because I'm practicing in stroke play mode, and Yes, I do that only because there are no practice rounds available on tournament greens.  I think everyone could benefit if that was available.  Also as a Legend and the same goes for Tour Masters, we are set at tournament green speeds, where else can we practice but in stroke play mode.

    Changing pin location, Humm I am not computer program smart, but I would think if WGT had the layouts for all the greens, they would be able to move the cup/pin where ever they seen fit to.  Hey! I could be very wrong in my thinking, but with a mechanical back ground in engineering, I can only think there's a possibility.

    One more thing!  I'd like to see a true straight forward putting grid from player to cup/pin, not these oblique angles we have now on some putts, sheesh the variances on different greens and there roll speeds are tough enough. LOL 

    Yeah, I maybe a Legend, but it only disguises the hack I truly am.   WGT, give us some tournament greens to practice on.  And if they are in this next update, then I thank you.

    Get the avatar out of the putting screen and have a first person view.

    Have the avatar step away from the ball and allow you to actually snap a practice swing.

    Realistically speaking, while it is nice to be able to keep the putting grid a secret, in reality anyone you are playing a round with should have the same chance to read your putt that you do, as they would if they were standing there watching you putt.

    Very much this.

    Some good ideas mentioned already. However it would be nice if there was an option to change yards, feet and inches to the metric system.

    If correct, I think it did say on this blogs header "Requests"  although I do send many to: members@worldgolftour.com.  instead of posting in the forums, for reasons that are obvious.

      Hey and WGT does listen, as many of us back in Sept, 2010 were made Legends. We then sent our thoughts to WGT on how they could make this game a little easier, or a bit more fair for the new Legend tier.  I'm not surprised at all that they came out with new Legend balls, and over the months since, newer clubs.  WGT does listen if we take the time to express or thoughts and get past our Woe's.  Thx again WGT.

    Why? Seems like WGT should ban you instead.
