We have listened to your requests and we do our utmost to accommodate for them. We would love to have multiple flights and realistic scores, while ensuring cross-platform competitiveness and not scaring away non-pro tour players. However, the way TGCTOURS (website) is arranged these days and real life happenings limit our options/get in the way.
Repeating the same thing (i.e. unrealistic scores) over and over again, and using words like “other complaint” do not speed up the process and demotivate instead of encourage us. You might want to keep that in mind.

Official course fun continues! Didn't make a single cut last season on these, and now I'm looking to continue the good run I've got going on with another made cut, because I'm sitting at -10 which currently looks to be safely sailing through (this week should make it 10 made cuts out of the last 11 weeks, pretty mental). Rounds were -4 and -6, ironically did better on the tougher of the 2 rounds. Am I becoming another player who does better on high winds than almost none? Can't even begin to tell you how many times I missed either a putt, or a bunker shot, or a chip by a hair's width though. What I can tell, however, is that I decided spontaneously to have a bit of extra fun this week! I decided to grab a screenshot every time the overhead view of the course map decided to not show bits of perfectly playable surfaces, whether it's fairway, green or hazard. I have so far grabbed 8 screenshots out of 36, almost 9 since there was one hole in round 2 I think that barely covered the whole deal, like a yard or 2 closer to the direction of the tee box and I could have counted that too. Hole 6 in round 1 only showed the tip of the green where the pin was and almost none of the fairway, round 2 at least showed in more detail but decided to leave out the middle portion of the fairway... for some reason? Anyways, cheers! And I guess more good luck than ever this week?

Not directed at you personally, Fran, and I know there's only so much that anyone can do, but only 12 Xbox players completed rd 2 by the deadline. 3 made the cut, and they are all Platinum level players. This belief of cross-platform competitiveness just doesn't exist, in my meager opinion. Maybe it does in the middle to lower tiers of CC, but certainly not in TST nor the TGCTours Pro societies. Enjoyed Bay Hill. I'm not good enough to worry about making cuts on TST anymore, but currently top 5 on Xbox. On to next week's missed cut! ;

Unbelievably late finisher this week. I mean... might as well have taken the week off next week by how I played but I know personally how unfair it is to others to skip, so no chances of that!
+1, +2. Weekend ate me alive, didn't really help that tempo was nowhere in sight. Considering all that, I only did score bogey or worse on 6 holes out of 36... too bad I totaled +9 on those. At least I was 1 under through back nine both rounds, so... eh, not everything was terrible, although I can easily blame slipping into "whatever" mode for much of it.
Welp, onto the next one refreshed and ready to go again, even though I expect something similar seeing it's Sawgrass. Cheers and good luck!

Enjoy the stats. Although I think it should be a requirement to complete all 4 rds to be considered top 5.

Pretty sure those folks didn't make the cut so the website doesn't pull their 3rd and 4th round scores (even if they did complete all 4 rounds). skoader can say for sure. He agreed to start working on TST backend/ranking and wrote a script to gather that info from the website as a starting point.

MachOne117 is correct. It's pretty tight right around the cut line for players in those flights. Should I exclude them in the future? I'm still playing around with how to best format these flight leaderboards and I'm open to suggestions.

I'm still playing around with how to best format these flight leaderboards and I'm open to suggestions. I think it's fine how it is for now. I'm hoping we can get together soon and go over the rankings/standings process and other TST improvement ideas to increase community engagement.
