Can’t tier up

  I have played over 500 ranked rounds as a legend with an average under 60 and still haven’t moved up to tour legend. Am I missing something?

  Are you certain you have 500 ranked rounds that count for average at Legend tier? Par 3s, Par 5s, and custom courses don't count for average or toward the 500 required, ranked rounds.

  Yes sir iI’m sure. I was at 155 total rr’s played when I played my first rr as a legend. Now I’m at 664 rr’s. That’s over 500 as a legend

  Nevertheless, you have to back out of that total any par 3, par 5, or custom courses. They don't count toward the 500 ranked rounds you need. In your recent history I saw one par 5.

  It's not possible that in the rest of those ranked rounds there weren't other par 5 or par 3 rounds or any custom course rounds?
  
  And just looking at a couple of other items in your recent score history, I saw two custom courses. 
  
  So, with just a cursory examination, I found three rounds that don't count. There have to be others within those last 500+ rounds.

  just to add a bit of clarity.

  in the stat that shows ranked rounds the par 3 par 5s and custom courses are counted.

  but as far as they go to tiering up they don't. 

  so yes the conclusion is they shouldn't count on the one visible stat that we can see that counts them. but they do.

   

  so if you truly want an accurate count you have to go back through your history and on paper take off those rounds from the WGT stat.

  Thanks for adding the clarification.

  He spent months playing red tees, and blamed everyone else when he didn't get promoted. Sent me a very nasty email, even quit our club, when it all boiled down to the fact that he didn't know how to count, lol Hope he wises up.

   i will never understand why people chase tiers. Zero point to it.

  Let it happen when it happens.

  But more chase them than don't
