Sorely missing from any aspect or any mode in TW13 was any nod toward handicaps. Up through 12, the online daily tournaments at least had the tier system, so if you were not someone who shot -24 for an online round, you had more of a chance to have a score within shouting distance of the leader.
I think the TW series needs to introduce a system of some sort, handicaps are an integral part of golf and the math is pretty well established. It seems trivial for a product that goes through so much development and promotion to work out the particulars of implementing a system that would stand up in online play. It would also be a good way to track one's own progress.
Meanwhile, is there any house rule you use to even the field if you want to play with a buddy at a different skill level? When I face my son, we just agree on a set of golfer's we can each choose from. Pretty much I had to use my CAG until I overleveled him or Natalie Gulbis. :-/
I wish there were more tools available, such as being able to use different tees for different players in the match, or a real handicap system so that match play would work properly.
