Surly there's something they could say without any risk, "Congratulations to JoeMaverick on his great play to shoot 222 in the VUSO, the lowest by two strokes" for instance.
They must've seen this post.
Says he won last year's and this year's VUSO....and a gold putter :-)
WGT should change the way the VUSO is handled. If a player is ineligible, there should be stated prize(s) for the top scoring ineligible player, and the guaranteed trip for the top scoring eligible player.

I don't know what the rules are for this upcoming amateur thing. Are ineligible players going to be able to play at all?
To get the truly best players in the top 32, it would have to include more than North American players.
I would think it generates ball sales at the very least Jay, excluding all the ineligible players would certainly take a large chunk out of those.
N America wouldn't be completely alone, along with Canada, Norway, the UK and Ireland there's Holland, Germany, Australia and S. Korea. While the rest struggle to understand why they're excluded, "it's the fault of their countries gaming laws" being the standard answer. yeah, right.
I know it's been a while since I was in the States, but when I was the gaming laws were also far from simple. The 50 states, DC etc. are all eligible now though I see, so I had a quick look to see what had changed
hmmm , so what is WGT, a lottery? There's hope though, the WGT scratchcard. After all with a golf club in my hand I have no chance, a scratchcard though. . . now there's a thought.
Good luck to all those who do play it, some superb scores in already.
Cheers!
