It cost me 55 points, I didn't hit the middle of the front of the green, I hit the front right and I kicked off. I think the land and roll is the shot there.

I've landed well short twice and rolled over the back and to the side both times.

Hi All,

I don't know about anyone else but I'm loving the US Open Course Olympic Club. Might be worth sharing some notes on the nearest the pin, I'm trying desperately to get under 100 points on the back 9 challenge:

HB means heartbeat, got it close. BSp full backspin used. r2l right to left wind etc. The 4th is crazy, 1st and 9th are tricky to get close, all others, I've gotten within 2 ft at some point making notes like this. Still only got 131 as a best so far. So TL these figures might help you as you have similar clubs, I'm using G-ID balls on a budget.

1st - 10% - 12mph r2l wind 7 ft left just carried bunker down slope (8mph head wind 100% BPs close strength)
2nd - 100% of 200 club not enough with 13 wind into face (same wind with 210 club 97.5% 2ft past and right HB)
3rd - 100% 90 club wid behind 12 HB BSp - 100 90 club no BSp 13ft short (14 head wind 90% 115 club 6 ft HB)
4th - 42% flop 64 deg - 8ft past HB full BSp
5th - 100% 115 club wind behind 13 HB (also 11 behind same shot 1.38 ft HB)
6th - 97% of default club wind 12 r2l HB 98% slightly more in face wind HB (9 mph head wind 100% BSp try it again)
7th - 95% of def club wind 12 l2r - HB - Try 94% (Wind 12 behind tried 92.5% came up short) (11mph head into face 98% came up 11 short)
8th - 75% BSp (Also worked into 17 mph head wind) Try 73%
9th - 98% (l2r 11 mph slight head wind 98% was too much 24ft)

If anyone fancies a game, let me know.
Cheers, Bert

So now there are apps for IOS and Android that basically delivery the same experience of WGT as the web version does. I played the Android version today and it's very slick and fast. It looks great on my Tab S.

I can see me getting into WGT again as the quality and experience of this game tick all the boxes.

Well done, never managed to do that on that game.   I struggle enough on the normal course to make par :p

Superb, how did the rest of the round go? I think we can do head to head cross platform. Try later today?
Cheers, Bert

I'm up for that, we could do one this pm.  Stroke or matchplay?

How about a matchplay? I'm at home today so will lurk on TS and in the game.

Is their site down? I couldn't connect this morning on Android and through it was just teething problems but it's not loading on Firefox.
