    22 Nov 2013

    The WGT Winter Tour continues into Round 2 this week, from 11/18 thru 11/24, with a more challenging single-round format on Bethpage Black. The infamous Black Course hosted the 2010 U.S. Open and will host the 2019 PGA Championship and 2024 Ryder Cup. Its length and small, raised greens make it a true test of golf, real or virtual.

    Round 3 will be played 11/25 thru 11/30 on Merion Golf Club, site of the 2013 U.S. Open, another challenging course for a single-round score, especially putting on those greens. The Top 70 combined scores in each WGT tier will split the WGT Credit purse.
