  my guess is we'll get it a month before the british open. i reckon they will already have most of the back nine mapped as a lot of the greens double up and are already in play. we have for example the 18th hole green in CTTH comp so it  could be ready now for all we know.

  To AvatarLee.....  when they first told us St. Andrew's front nine was coming on the 30-60 day list..... we got it almost one week later...maybe 2...  much less than the 30 day......  But no matter if it's right at that time or not....  they did introduce St. Andrew's CTTH at the time of the British Open....  Makes some sense they are trying to get it ready for then.....  They might even have most of it ready.........  who knows how many bugs they have to work out before it's ready for us.......

  seven double greens only the 1st 9th 17th and 18th have their own greens. we already have 1 and 9 and 17 and 18 are on CTTH some fairways on the back nine are played now there can't be alot to map out. another interesting thing that WGT could do when we get the back nine that they do a few days a year is to play the course the other way round clockwise.

  They need to get the front 9 fixed first. It's rediculous, so far removed from the real deal. Two holes that in reality have the same direction tee to green, go from 29mph head wind to 15mph crosswind. I have a 49' bright blue uphill putt and defaults to 30' meter. On the green distance in feet. Putter meter in yards? I've shot 31 on the course-but I won't play it no moe. St Andrews sucks-it's old world golf-If I want "old World" I'll trade my BMW for a horse and carriage-sdrew it

  St. Andrews was first announced on the Coming Soon List(30-60 days) on the 7th January. We got it on the 25th February. Not exactly one week later. I doubt we will get the back nine before June.
