Please hire some competent tech people to look into why your app is not working. It supposedly should work on IOS 12 and later, but since your latest upgrade, it’s not. I’ve had to download your ridiculously slow website to get golf news. The ESPN website is a better alternative! Just bought an iPhone XR and brought back up my PGA Tour app as I’m now on IOS 13, however you should have notified followers with older phones that don’t support newer IOS updates or allowed them to download an older version of the app! Get with it you tech pros.

Just when you thought the PGA Tour app could not get worse after the last iteration, this abomination shows up. For starters, if I want to know the broadcast schedule, I have to scroll through a bunch of streaming feeds that I don’t care about. How about, I dunno, putting the daily broadcast schedules in a compact area that’s easy to find and make the streaming schedule separate. I mean I get that people are cutting the cord but, good grief, look up Byzantine on Wikipedia and this app shows up. Next, I want to know the tee times coming up are so I expect to see “Tee Times” somewhere. But no, where are they? Oh! There they are under the friggin’ leaderboard selection. Brilliant! So I’ve come up with a mnemonic to remember this: if you want to see the tee times, be sure to click “leaderboard”. Oh, that’s not a mnemonic you say? Of course it’s not, who the frig wants to try to come up with a way to remember how to get to something so fundamentally desired it requires a friggin mnemonic. I wish I could give zero stars, so I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with giving zero craps about this app.

It saddens me to say this but I’ll officially be moving on from PGA Tour Fantasy. I made the move over to it after Yahoo Fantasy Golf ended and I enjoyed it for years, especially during the earlier stages that included the One-and-Done challenges for both the PGA and the PGA Champions Tour until they eventually got rid of those as well. The high scoring version with the red app was highly entertaining, then they completely altered the layout of it that included a watered down scoring system which made it far less desirable to me. I even enjoyed participating in the comment sections under various articles on the website. Rob Bolton was very interactive with the community of commenters and it added to the whole enjoyment of the fantasy experience but of course they had to end that, too. The truth of the matter is, the PGA is failing and they know it. It won’t be long until the LIV takeover commences and I will gladly be joining the ride!
