    Nearly 100,000 virtual golfers competed on Kiawah for a share of the 400,000 WGT Credit purse and a chance to move up the Virtual Tour season standings.

Ultimately, it was Tour Legend frenchconnect (USA), a WGT member since 2010 who captured this month’s title by firing rounds of 55 and 54 for a cumulative total of 109, edging out five other Tour Legends for top honors, including: Mannyankees (DR), fmagnets (UK), jmoney2224 (USA), CptWomp (CAN) and xXxjasonxXx (USA).
