  Just curious, if any had tailwinds on the par 5's?

  I had none..all headwinds with no chance to reach.  Also couldn't hit wedge in either...:(

  I had tail wind on #1.  the rest headwind.  If it makes you feel better I started -12 thru 12 then lipped 5 straight birdie putts.  whoops

  Thank you both for replying.

  Because I couldn't get to within wedge/punch distance on the par 5's, that was 2 strokes right off the bat that WGT took.  I did manage to birdie 2 of them though.

  People will say it mimics real life conditions.  Well, this isn't real life.  Why should player A have that distinct advantage over player B.

  IMO, WGT needs to address and fix this.
