yeah i wish i could use stick swing but it never goes where i want it. But oh well. i guess i'll just have to fgorget it unless EA decides making Quick Play or regular 18 holes a way to get it as well.
You get points by playing career, challenges etc
there is plenty of points to earn.
I swear everyone just wants everything NOW in all forms of life and it seems this game is no different. Gimme gimme gimme

Well yes but that's because you'll be a 'Winner' in everything you enter 🙂. By definition of the finishing position categories, the vast majority will earn a lot less than this, and with tournaments many also run the risk of players making a net loss if they finish too low. Even on the pay-to-enter dailies people who finish in the bottom 25% make a net loss (since tickets can be bought for 1000 reward points). This is a lot of players.
Over time my guess is the average standard in each level will increase, with those finishing in the bottom 25% with any regularity stopping playing them. Then players that were previously outside this group will fall into it, and the process will repeat itself.
Personally I think the risk of losing out by entering tournaments is too high currently and will harm long-term participation.
I've just been having another look at the tournament situation and it's actually worse than I thought for most players.
'Tickets' can be bought for 1000 Reward Points each in the shop. Across all of the daily tournaments where you can win Tickets, the bottom 75% only get 1 ticket per 1000 Reward Points paid as entry fee, or worse fewer or even none. For 75% of players we can therefore view the entry costs to the weekly and seasonal tournaments to be at least 1000 Rewards Points per Ticket the entrance costs. To win more than this a player needs to finish as follows in each tournament:
Weekly Arcade: top 35%.
Weekly Pro: top 40%.
Weekly Tour: top 40%.
Weekly Sim: top 40%.
Seasonal Arcade: top 20%.
Seasonal Pro: top 25%.
Seasonal Tour: top 30%.
Overall this means that for most players (comfortably >50%) they'd be better off not playing tournaments at all and just using the reward points earned from the free daily tournaments to buy specs or cosmetic items they want. Not a sustainable model IMHO.
