    Happy to know there is best of par 5, so far 8 match 6 merion and 2 congressional, difficult to score, when WGT will put the same courses for all and change every 8 hours or 12.

    For our Match 9 at last bop5

    This is the worst it has ever been on course selection. My club has had F9 Merion on 5 of 8 matches

    I feel your pain.  Merion F9 seems to be default for us.  The ennui is crippling...

    I don’t normally complain about courses and conditions , BUT , as a mediocre putter only , I am finding the greens at Merion , almost unplayable on some greens !

    BHenke2:
    My club has had F9 Merion on 5 of 8 matches and possibly even six but I was asleep during that one so I'm not sure.

    Make that 6 out of 9 on Merion. I don't know what kind of random course generator that WGT uses but I think it is broke. LOL. 6 out of 9 is not even close to being random when there are four courses in play.

    Hi, not that it makes a difference anymore but I got Congressional once and has been stuck on Merion for the rest. So no variety here at all, and Merion is not always the best course with 13 wind.

    ...It is even more frustrating to try and communicate (good or bad) when being moderated for every message sent.

    9th round and haven’t seen Pebble yet, unless it was the single one while I was sleeping. 

    Congressional, Par 5, Congressional, Congressional, Merion, sleeping zzz, Congressional, Par 5, & Merion so far. I will sit it out if we get Congressional again.

    AlaskanDame, you can have all our Congressional next time!

    I was out most of yesterday which is I am only commenting now.

    BHenke2's post … he is a member of my club … is too conservative.  My final count for BD is 7 Merion's, 1 Congressional, 2 PB, and 1 BOP5 which came in the next to last match.  Merion was also 7 of the first 9 … pretty discouraging for all of us, but with 13 speed greens, it murders anyone not a TL or above, and I hated it too.

    We've won the club clash lottery before, but it stunk this time.

    I will do this in BD forum, but anyone who played multiple rounds given what we started with gets serious congratulations for being a real WGT golfer.

    Tom.

    I had been wondering about your club’s placement on the leaderboard, Tom.  All of those Merions totally explain it.  Not only were they tough to score in, having Merion be 7 out of first 9 probably cut down your participation rate.  Sure would have cut mine!

    Sincere condolences, and I hope you get a better mix next time (but I want to keep the mix we got, lol)

    AlaskanDame:
    Looks like the "fight" is for 3rd place this time, between Legend of the She Wolf and English Golf Club. If they are even on number of rounds . . . . only a 200 point difference.

    I’m seeing a 30 point difference atm.
