Game Stopped Working Mid Round

  So I was playing a bracket tourney, 18 hole at Whistler on the Windows version. Can't recall what hole I was on but I made my approach shot and the game just froze in my backswing.  Closed the game, opened back up and got the message "You have a game in progress for a tournament not supported on mobile.  You may FORFEIT this game now or complete your game on the web.  Forfeiting will disqualify you from the tournament".  It gives me an option to forfeit or "go to web".  I wasn't playing on mobile so no idea what the heck this is all about.  Very annoying.

  I have had Whistler freeze on me several times on #14 when playing on PCEA / new version. The only way to finish was with the flash version of the game.

  This just happened to me again - on Whistler again.  Pain in the butt.  Not sure what the heck is causing it but please look into this.  Having to finish in flash sucks now that I'm used to web version.

  They don't plan to keep Whistler after the end of the year. It is not designed, adapted to, or meant to be played on the new version. So I wouldn't expect them to fix anything about it at this point. Consider it a bonus that we can play it at all.

  Having played it quite a few times now, I would estimate that it freezes on hole #14 about 40-50% of the time. If you don't want to finish on flash, you should avoid tourneys that use Whistler back 9.

  If Whistler continually freezes, like it just did again, then they shouldn't be putting it into any tournaments.  Again, its not a huge deal as there isn't any money to be won or lost so I just quit at this point, but why would they continue to put a course with known bugs into tournaments?
