RIP Rocher Points. You will be missed. I never got to earn any of you. It was my dream to one day collect you. I can't stop weeping. Why have you done this!?! I shall light a candle at sunset with this song playing. Barbara hold my hand.

Doyley Can you give a break down from top to bottom the list of tours? PGA European Web.com Specifically what the CC-AM and CC-Pro will look like, top to bottom. Thanks and I am excited to get the new season started! Pro ToursPGA European Web.com CC-ProCC-A CC-B CC-C CC-D CC-AmCC-E CC-F CC-G CC-Z TST still operating separate to the above (ie you can play in TST and one of the above)

Yep. Everyone does. Top 150 qualify for the PGA, Next 150 for Euro etc..... So even if you are web.com now (or whatever tour) you will need to Q-School all over again? I don't mind doing that, but curious if this is what you're saying. Yes, all current tour cards will be removed, everyone will have to go through the initial mass Q-School, or the weekly Q-Schools that follow to get a tour card.

What is the patch allegedly suppose to fix in the game and societies? There is a bug that, if you press "Continue" from a society round, the next round begins with the same course setup from the previous round. But if you back out of the event to the Society page and then resume the event, the correct conditions are applied.
This leads to players having different winds for their rounds. If someone had 0-4 MPH wind in R1, they could "continue" and have 0-4 MPH winds in R2 while other players might have to contend with a hurricane.
Will the green speed (feet) be the same for all four rounds? I thought I noticed it change, (maybe a senior moment.)

If someone was to play any other clubs than master clubs in Q-school, regardless of your finish in Q-school, the best you could do would be CC-A? Correct - if you play 7 rounds on Master, 1 round on Pro, you could only get to CC-A. All 8 rounds have to be on Master Clubs to get to Pro Tours (if you shoot well enough).

Lots of interesting changes, which I'm pretty happy with.
Still a bit uncertain about the "wind change", but I guess that's something I'll adjust to rather quickly.

What was the logic behind making the Pro Tours harder? I'm for it, I think, just curious the thought process. Thanks!

Could someone, theoritically play all 4 Q school rounds on a Friday or Saturday of that week? Or will there be a deadline similar to past tournament weeks. I just ask as I’m on vacation the week of the 1st week of October (if it happens that week). Although I could get them all in, just later in the week.

I was looking for a more in-depth conversation surrounding it. Considering many people complain about inaccurate the swing mechanics are.

Easier than reading the flag on TST in TGC1 anyway

Not sure how in-depth the conversation needs to get. Pro tours equals higher skilled players equals harder club set. This is NOT a change to how things have been running for the last year.

First off, love the changes and excited to get it going!
Will the promo/ demo marks be an add/ subtract method or will they both show? That info was a little unclear. IE: If I have a promo mark and then finish where I would get a demo, would I have 1 each, or would the promo just go away because I got a demo?
If both show, I would assume you couldn't promote up if you have any demos lingering..
Thanks for all the hard work guys!
