   69 attempts and Olympic never popped up to play  :(   Whistler and Cabo combined popped up 47 times  lol.  Oh well....the waiting continues, hehehehe........

  Send me a friend request, I will sent and invite after finishing a round in there with the "CHALLEGE YOUR FRIENDS" method. you will receive the  link and the amasing amount of 50xp for playing it lol.

  I checked MisterWGT's profile a while ago, and his status read "Now Single Digit Days Until the Open Begins!" I think that means that Olympic will be released on May 11th, 2012.

  LOL. Not for nothing, Bugg, but counting from his update of May 1, that would make May 10th the latest. Sunday night seems to be the time when big updates happen which would make it the 5th.  :-)

  We are all kinda beta testers on this one. Be sure to do bug reports with description if you come accross a bug.  So far seems pretty spot on to me.

  And why should anyone have to pay to play when the courses are supposed too be for free? We already have to put up with enough games from W.G.T. when it comes to playing this game. From all of the games cheats too everything else that they produce.I personally dont care about the virtual open, so open up the dmn course. Seeeee Yaaaaaa.

  Not sure what you mean in the first sentence. I'll try and explain why Olympic isn't officially opened in simple terms.

  1. Olympic replays aren't yet working
  2. The "back 9" option isn't working
  3. The "full 18" option isn't working
  4. The back 9 CTTH isn't finished
  5. The USGA won't let them open it up before the Virtual US Open *maybe*?

  It's a Leap-year this year, YJ.  Sunday's the 6th...  ; )

  You're bang-on with the Sunday night / Monday morning release though.....if past history is any indication.  I'd put my money on qualifying being open for play first thing on Monday morning.
