    With over 1 million rounds played since May, the top qualifying score is currently an impressive 53, shared by 4 WGT players: JayJensen, Ffudd, genorb, Win1Soon.

    Just a few shots back, but safely qualified, are some familiar (and amusing) WGT player names from past Virtual U.S. and British Opens, including: zant, Starsandros, mongo441, jakestanfill7, dansamcam, TugboatDoug.

    Also safely qualified are the recent Virtual U.S. and British Open winners, including:

    • mrenn29 - 2011 Virtual U.S. Open champ
    • StoneColdKiller - 2011 Virtual British Open champ
    • BolloxInBruges - 2010 Virtual U.S. Open champ
    • AvatarLee - 2010 Virtual British Open champ

    Congratulations to everyone who's qualified and played!

    The top 156 scores (plus ties) by Sunday 6/17 will all qualify for the exciting championship rounds. The current Cut Line is 59, meaning everyone at 59 and lower will qualify. However, there are 147 players at 58 or better, so if another 9 players post 58 or better, then the Cut Line will move to 58. In other words, if you're at 59 or higher, then you're on the bubble and should try to post a lower score.

    For all you mortals out there -- don't worry, you don't have to shoot a 58, a 68 or even a 98, because this year, just entering in the Virtual U.S. Open Qualifier gives you a chance to win the same grand prize: a trip for two to the 2013 U.S. Open at Merion (limited of course to countries that allow residents to win those prizes. Sorry, blame the lawmakers and lawyers.) So everyone should be sure to post at least one round for a chance to win.
