I have a Pro tour exemption, and while I have yet to decide if I am going to use it or not, the option is not there to use it for the event in the subject title. The field size is zero, so has this event's registration forgotten to be opened?
FWIW, I am able to register with my exemption for the week 33 PGA event and for both the week 32 and week 33 European Tour events.

I will look into the registration is but my advice would be to skip it. Using an exemption to play in a minor event isn't worth the use of it as we don't issue tour cards to exempt players for minor events (since the field is not reflective of the true pro tour field). So you could play in that event but you'd have no chance to earn your card.

Probably no real point in using it this late in the year anyways as there isn't enough time to earn FedEx pts. to stay there. |

Good info to know. Even if we earned a PGA/Euro tour card through the exemption during week 33, we wouldn't be able to play the next week if it is anything like real life. The Barclays, which is week 34 on TGCTours, consists of the top 125 Fedex point leaders in real life. Thus, we could earn a PGA card only to lose it based on being in bottom 20% of Fedex points.
