Play the Pro's Online Tournament Discussion

Wow, I know that putting is my weakness, but I played my first round this morning..... Not good. In the clubhouse at +13, which included me finally getting some decent approaches to finish birdie, birdie, par, bogey. Best 4 hole stretch of the round. I really like the challenge and live scoring. I was 18th when I left to go to work this morning. (Ran late because of it.) I used my own golfer, seeing how everything is maxed at 7. I had fun, but man my putting is killing me.

I think that this mode is going to be a blast this year. my psn is gr8juan. You will see me near the bottom of the leader board all weekend!

Yeah I played the weekly tournaments (both of them) and I enjoyed those too. There were a couple of guys that had unrealistic scores but I liked it. I can't wait to get home and play the "Play the Pros" Tournament.

Rob - may be a stupid question but . . . everything is automatically moved/capped to 7 no matter what your created guy is currently at? I would love to use my created golfer, but didn't think i'd be able to until my attributes get up there. I've only played 2x and they right now are in the 2.5 - 3.5 range.

Sounds good. Can't wait to try this later.

That I can't answer. My guys attributes are all above 7, so I really can't say. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Oh and I thought that I should add, that since this is taking place on a course that isn't in the game, it is a mash-up of holes from the 16 courses that are in the game. Off the top of my head, I know that I played on the 17th, and 18th from Sawgrass, though not in that order.

Next week should be a good one though at Bethpage.

Fellows just wondering on this Play the Pros do you only ply 1 round a day? Reason I'm asking on Sat. I'm going out of town and was wondering can I get all 4 rounds in a day or not? Thanks

[N51_rob]

JSKY, From what I saw this morning I could've played my second, third and forth rounds if I wanted. You have to have 4 rounds completed by the time the window closes is all. At least that is how I understood it. If I'm wrong someone can correct me.

Haven't tried any of the online Tournaments yet, was working on the challenges to try and gain a few attributes first the past day or two. Now that I have a few ranks I may give this a go now that I'm around 7 for my stats except my short game which is really aweful. It really sounds like a ton of fun. Now if EA can somehow find a way to cap players attributes or something of the like to combat the -34 type of unrealistic scoring people have talked about it'll be great.
