Due to it being mostly impossible to make a cut with all the players on PC (which cannot be monitored for always making straight shots), I will no longer participate in this or anyother tour here unless a level playing field can be established.
If a PS4 user uses a hori pad, they are automatically disqualified. If a PC user uses a ruler or book to make their shot, seems all is good. You shold not monitor one (consoles) without the monitoring the other (PC). Should have split it up between consoles and PC.
All enjoy and good luck

If you have legitimate reason to believe someone is cheating, you can report them by messaging a director.

Do people still use mouse? If they use a ruler they fail at life let alone a golf game, and they vill be vound out and shot. =P Wouldn't go and throw your toys though, heck its only week one. And by the way, the leaderboard is showing bugger all PC players, a lot of PS4s....nerf them all lol.

All enjoy and good luck We won't be seeing you again then as it will never be possible to 100% police... All consoles are monitored. PC users can check PC players just as much as ps4 can check ps4. It's not impossible to make a cut, I am 12th and barely had 1 100% straight shot. It's more than doable if you are good enough. Where did you even get your understanding that PC players are allowed to use devices to make straight shots?

OoooooooooooKaaaayyyy. The OP shot 68-65 for -11 total (currently T-112)
I really don't wanna be "that guy" but the post assumes that there are enough PC players to make up 42 positions. I know that there are at least 90 players in this event on PS4, and roughly 45-50 each on PC and XB1.
My thought to the OP is that, "hey you missed the cut, sorry mate, try again next week".
The scores are lower, because we have a number of PGA members this week.
I am not complaining that there are 30-40 PGA players playing in this event, making it tougher to make the cut. I look at that as being a greater challenge, if I am able to make the cut, I have really accomplished something.
I qualified 203rd in Q-School, can't hit a straight shot to save my life, and finished -16 in the event and play on PS4.
One of the 1st round leaders who shot a 58, finished Q-School in 243rd place on a PS4.
Sorry to say, but its a 42 week season, you WILL miss an occasional cut.

Not that I think it matters, but maybe it is worth pointing out that of the top 15 players on the leaderboard at the moment, only 4 played on PC.

I finished top 50 in the q school and played my very best. And it was tough for me to make the cut here. This game is not easy, and for me I've started to get the less than 100% shots during rounds where I never had one in Q school. Don't quit because you can't make a cut. Play with the ghosts of the best players, take your time and concentrate. My worst rounds are when I hurry and make mental mistakes....just like real golf. I'm blown away by the low scores, but we all have birdied a hole, we just need to birdie more like the top players! Hang in there. Most of us PGA guys are back to the US next week and I'll be fighting even harder to make the cut.....challenge yourself to get better. Don't compare yourself to the best. It takes long hours that most of us don't have to be great. Enjoy the tours, have a pint and hit the links! Cheers! Playing real golf tomorrow in southwest Florida. Shot 69 last week, best round in many years after going to the claw grip! Al a Sergio!

As for the original post, it seems a bit of sour grapes to me. It is also the first tourney of the season, and it's an extra competitive field with no true PGA Tour event this week. I'm at risk of seeing my -16 be a Cut. It is what it is! Get back on the horse, and worry about your game, not that everyone above you/us is possibly cheating.

The post of the day goes to this guy ^^ Agreed, when I first got the game I was cr*p and struggled on Little Brook Manor or whatever the easy HB course is called. Just practice if you have the time. First time I play a course I go at the flags to see what sticks and on practice rounds after that go to different parts of the green to see where the best spot is to leave a decent looking birdie putt. Maybe its tougher for the guys who made the Euro Tour at +3 in Q School and would have been better off if the PGA was the top rank with all top 125 going into that and the other 125 going into Euro as a "Division 2" with the Web.com being the feeder for that? Shouldn't just give up by blaming the equipment though claiming its uneven.

is a very hard cut to make, but you have to get it together in the first 2 rounds, just like real life
i got it together in the last 2 rounds and thats too late.
i play on PC and i assure you the majority of good players are on PS4, not too mention this week sees everyone but 40 players in this Tourny, it has a field of a major and scored accordingly also.
