So it looks like I might be given a spot. I'm assuming that if I'm playing in round 4, I have to play the first three rounds of the special tournament, (which won't count) to get to the right round I'm having to play?

Thanks for the info. I'll get the first three rounds out of the way for practice then. Thanks everyone!

So it looks like I might be given a spot. Your welcome Looks like the coin flopped off the table and was lost. Do appreciate the acceptance of a non-xbox player. Hopefully I won't embarrass myself too much.

Congrats on being selected Brighttail! Good luck to you! I don't mind being the only XB1 guy! At least we do have some representation which I think is a good thing! I'm going to do my best and it goes without saying but...... USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! Good luck everyone!

Good enough?? Where in the regulations did it say you had to have a current WGR below a certain number? How far down the list did we go?
I saw the bit that said each platform would be represented on each team.
Probably for the best, wouldn’t want a 9-7 scoreline blighting the sheets, better to just bend the rules than have that.
Oh wait..

Oh wait.. Hey Ray! I don't know how far down the list they went or how the backups were decided, but if I had known, I would have suggested you. I reached out to the initial pick for the international team to try to confirm his involvement and got no response and I think I see that you play more on TST and such so I just wasn't aware that you were available. I tried to look thru the list of folks that are in the XB1 top 50 forum that is posted and see if I could find anyone and just didn't see anybody. Sorry about that man. I'm not as familiar with the guys on TST because I don't play over there. I didn't have any say in the picks but I wish I could have helped out to have another XB1 guy out there. My apologies bud!

Thanks man, but I’m a mile down the list. I dropped to the Beginner club tour for a while so my WGR dropped. I’d think there’s a heap on Euro or KF that would jump at the chance. Would just be a matter of advertising it in the two threads and I’m sure people would have volunteered.
As it is the 50th best player on PS and PC are probably both on the PGA tour - who knows where the 50th best on XB is playing, CC-B?? We already get fingered, it’s wrong for a rare opportunity for an XB player to be given to a PC player, regardless of who they are.
Just my 2c. Not too late to make it right.

I was scrolling through the xbox list that gets updated this weekend. I think the next International player would have been Adam Birch on the KF tour, unless the promo event changed that? He actually played in the original Presidents Cup in Season 1. I screwed up my coin flip suggestion though, Ron should have been Bright Tails and not heads

I honestly wasn't expecting to be selected, but I was asked and graciously accepted. Why the rule was changed, I do not know. I know I was 16th on the list of 30, so perhaps there wasn't another xbox player in that list that responded in time? That being said, even if I was an xbox player, I'm sure there would still be some who would find a reason to whine and complain about my inclusion. At least I'm not the only mouse player!!! At least one mouse player will celebrate a team victory this year!
Mouse players UNITE!

Yeah pointing out that you shouldn’t have been considered based on THE RULES is a personal attack Ron, why don’t you cry about me to the admins again..
I’d say it was far from gracious to accept a spot that was allocated to an XBox player Ron. Selfish is a LOT better description of what you’ve done.
If someone who was happy to play on either team and isn’t from XBox takes the spot, then why even have the rule to begin with? Why not just pick the best players regardless of platform?
