October 15th 2017:
Happy 7TH Anniversary to The Las Vegas Knights Country Club!
Congratulations to The Las Vegas Knights Country Club and the outstanding membership on once again another really stunning year.
A very special thank you to each and every one of you for your continued support and participation in this fantastic club here on The World Golf Tour.
A preview of 2018:
Four new events will be added in 2018 This summer we will be adding The Grand National, The East Coast Classic and two ongoing events The Knight Cup and The Weekly Stroker (details coming soon!)
The 2018 Ryder Cup: This event in the works and the details will be shown on the site very soon!
Golden Knight:
Once again this event will be broken down into four seasons January-March, April - June, July - September and finally October - December.
The top two members of each of the four seasons will then meet in a playoff to determine the winner of The Golden Knight.
The Golden Knight Invitational Classic will be three rounds of stroke play on a course(s) to be determined starting the 1ST week in January 2018.
World Cup, World Series and Player's Championship Knock-Out Stage: Many of these take way to long to be completed.
A time limit will be set for each of these events and will be shown on the site If they are not completed within one month score posted in the next upcoming Monthly medal will be used and the winner will move on to the next round. Handicaps will be included.
L.V.K.C.C. Player's Championship: This Random 5 event will continue in 2018
Members will be required to sign up to play in this on a special post on the forum.
Sign up's will begin before the end of this year.
This will then get under way no later than February 1ST 2017, and the new detail will be shown under The Classic Tournaments.
Many of these random five matches also take way to long to be completed.
A time limit will also be set for each of these matches and the details will also be shown on the site If they are not completed in a "reasonable amount of time" a special playoff will be created and the winner will earn the points. Handicaps will be included. In general you will have approximately 3 months to complete three maybe four rounds of a five hole match play round against your opponents that generally only takes about 15- 20 minutes to play.
Team Captain's: Nigel (Wutpa) will captain Team Europe and Robert (Rhud) will captain Team North America
They are both obviously here to answer any questions members might have about anything on the website as well as questions regarding any ongoing event.
They will also take an interest in moving along matches in The Player's Championship as well as encourage our team mates to complete events when Holy Grail points are at stake.
2018 U.S. Open: Rumor has it that a new course might become available some time next year and if so The 2018 US Open will be played there, if this does not materialize then we will have to select the course ourselves. If it comes to this, a poll will be created at a much later date to determine where we play in 2018.
Still waiting for another British Course or a European course as well FFS..
Membership Update: We are very close to being full. We could still use two more members from Europe and then membership may be closed. My goal has always been 30 active members 15 each from both sides of the pond.
Members are encouraged to search their friends list for potential candidates as well as recruit possible members when you are playing with someone who is not a member of a club and is a good candidate to be a Knight!
Inactive Members: If you look at the membership page you will notice most of the inactive members are shown at the bottom of the page. These members will not included on the roster for the 2018 Ryder Cup unless they activate themselves. They are all very good friends of mine as well as the club and may never be removed.
We obvious have more than enough room since World Golf Tour allows me 200 members something that is never going to happen.
Keep in mind I have never believed I "own" this club rather it is owned by the membership, I am just the caretaker, any and all suggestions as well as any comments are always welcome.
And Finally, my mate Nigel (Wutpa): I can't say enough about the help Nigel has provided me with this year, he is a true genius when it comes to spreadsheets the formula used for all the leader-boards. The countless hours he has spent on this major project is really unbelievable! Everything now automatically calculates on all the different sheets, in the past I did each one individually. He has made this so much easier for me to post results to the site.
A very special thanks for all your hard work Nigel!
