Possible Cheaters in PGA Tour? High scores or leaving game

There are no cheaters in this game or in any game from 20 years outside of Ranking boards.   Just clowns who yell and you listen.

Firstly nobody in this thread has 'listened' in terms of accepting any cheating allegation (and note that as per my signature I don't work for EA by the way).

Note also that you responded to info. stating that people couldn't go around publicly accusing people of cheating here (posts will be removed I assure you). I don't actually know how any allegations made using the private channel described would be handled but my guess is it will be very hard to actually get anyone banned and any judgement would very much be evidence based. I really don't think you have anything to worry about.

Only cheater I've ever come across in my lifetime playing EA PGA games is [Edit - Admin.]

I'm not going to get into the cheating debate. Without real proof it is not worth thinking about. It would be nice though if their were separate tournaments for those who shoot ultra high scores and those of us in the middling range. I would love to start playing a few online tourneys but when I look at the scores I say why bother paying an entry fee when there is absolutely no chance of competing. Personally I am not sure I would enjoy shooting -20 under all the time. Where is the challenge. OK maybe once would be cool :}

and if EA doesn't want to implement this they can introduce the community clubs like the old games so communities can have club created  private tournaments.  I would still like to see turn based head to head matches as well.

When it comes to cheating I wouldn't cry about it unless you are willing to give up your anonymity.  That possibly means paying a subscription for the privilege of providing your birth certificate  as well as verifying your home address with a 2fa code to the authenticator app on your phone lmao.    Or the usb stick they mail you.   Becaue there is cheating in every online game and for 30 years Ive been advocating against it and I realize its never going to be respected by general western society in my lifetime until then.

But that doesn't mean EA Sports should not be implementing multiplayer features which they clearly have shown they resent.   Don't forget this is the same company who abandoned the PC in 2008 citing piracy.  To them everyone cheats and is a hacker and I can't blame them for thinking that way.   But it should not dictate their development even if they don't try address and limit it.
