I am so jealous that those at the PGA Tour level get to follow the real PGA Tour schedule and oftentimes play the actual course the pros are playing that week. My suggestions is for TGC Tours to do the same for all levels (or most?). I'm a guy that's pretty good (few top 20's on Challenge D), loves playing the game, and really enjoys what TGC Tours is offering me. But I personally feel like I would never tire of TGC Tours if I could follow along with actual Tour schedule while in season. I'm a decent player but I know I'll NEVER make it to the PGA Tour on TGCTours ...
The week the PGA Tour folks are playing The Masters, the rest of us will be stuck playing The Scottsdale Desert Classic. How sad ...

You can always play the PGA event in game, you just won't be on the leaderboard.
It's not all sun and rainbows on the PGA here. We have only played one event (and it was a small % of PGAers) that used the actual IRL course in 10 weeks. That was last week at Kapalua. We did use Erin Hills a few weeks back as well, but that wasn't matching the course they played that week.
Matching the schedule is not the same as matching the actual course. PGA here still plays way more than half (maybe 1/4 at a guess) of the courses on courses that do not match the same course in the same week of the IRL course.
Also, don't sleep on the European Tour here. They have played a couple of Open ROTA courses already this season.

Not following the same schedule as PGA allows the challenge circuit to present a wide variety of great fictional courses. We will play some of the top PGA during the CC season

I recognize everybody is different -- I think the courses produced are amazing, but I'd prefer to play a great RCR over a fictional course every single time. I love TGC Tours though, have a lot of fun with it!

I agree with you....playing the course and watch real PGA players on TV the same week is fascinating.

It would be awesome if we had some majors or something in the CC ranks that is worth more than just any other tournament. That would be an awesome idea i think. Or at least give us Augusta for 1 week

Or at least give us Augusta for 1 week There is a Masters qualification tournament every season for all CC tours that will play one of the Augusta RCRs. A few from the CC tours qualify for the actual Masters event as well from this event/week. I believe it is a week or two before the actual Masters tournament. |

There used to be majors in CC, but there were some technical limitations with switching to TGC2019 and re-implementing this. The promotion events act as de facto majors, as do the Masters Qualifying and PGA Championship Qualifying tournaments. |
