  Guys and gals, tiered tournaments are back.  Boy this makes me excited and it looks like things tournament wise could be heading back uphill.  Now if we could only get three or four more a week and a few more monthlies.

  I'm stoked. Glad they were wrong when they said they weren't bringing those back!

     It also appears that they`ve finally worked out the international issues. They`re open to All countries With Credit Payouts!  It`s good to see things moving forward! Good work WGT!

  Where do you guys get this information from?    I scoured both the Tournaments & News webpages and can't see anything... If international players now actually can participate in all tourneys, it's a milestone & fantastic news!

  Faterson you have to be resourceful to find out all the news.  Go to the tournaments and select active tournaments where you can find the upcoming tournaments.  They upload them the week before the turn in the month.

  Right, thanks. There've been so few tournaments we could join until now I'm not really familiar with that particular webpage. For all of us site users from around the world, this in fact amounts to an unannounced product update. A milestone by any standards, like the other one on August 13th that brought us multi-play on any course of our choice. That's some pretty good progress in a month and a half's time!

  Yup, seems like most all tournaments that start after October 1st will be open to all competitors.  Only the specific Tier Opens are still limited.

  Good job WGT.

  Too bad about those Tier tournaments, but hopefully they'll be opened up for everyone soon as well.

  It also appears the much-criticized experiment with the International Open tournaments has now been cancelled?    It's true they aren't needed any longer, now that the bulk of the tournaments is open for everyone.

  Looks as if It has been replaced by the "The Fall 18-Hole Classic" which is month long and open to all countries, only now it is for a bit of credits (less than weeklys) instead of 'bragging rights'.

  Seems like an improvement. :]
