I was thinking about sending an email to PGA Tour website to get them to change their font(s) on the certain pages to make it easier to read. The current font(s) on, for example, http://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/schedule.html is cr@p IMO.

Other fonts like Verdana are easier on the eye and have more spaces between each letters and the letters are designed better than the current one.

Does anyone on here agree?

New designs always come as a bit of a shock, but this one seems pretty horrible.  I guess the rationale is to make it more tablet-friendly but it still seems like a really unstructured mess.

While new designs can be a bit of a shock, even comic like, the most important thing is choosing the correct font that is easy to read quickly.

Hopefully the upgrade will include differentiating between D.H.Lee and Danny Lee on the mobile website.

I might be missing it among the clutter, but can anyone spot the course guide page for this week?  Pretty basic information and now seems pretty hard to find.

I hate it when sites change like this ... I mean, maybe I'm a bit of a dinosaur, I still use the old BF site ... but I can't see how the new site is an improvement. I didn't think much of the old PGA Tour site either, because it didn't have tournament results from previous years, but this is still the case for the new site. And now there are lots of broken links ... like Total Bosman said, the course guide page is not there anymore. Also, I can only see the top 16 players on the leaderboard without scrolling, that's gonna be annoying! Surely with all the money in the game, they could come up with something better than this?

Setting the screen to 75% helps but still can't see any link to Shot tracker. Plenty of huge pictures though !

There is a 'new leaderboard' where if you click on the player you get his shot tracker.

Hope they haven't got rid of the shot tracker page.

The old site used to say something like  THIRD SHOT 12 ft to hole on the par 4 5th hole for example, now it just says THIRD SHOT 12 ft to hole !!!! on a what!!! a Par 3 or a Par 4 or a Par 5    dreadful, I know you can look on the scoreboard to find out the Par of the hole but it time consuming,   Changes for changes sake, and also the colour coding, why two colours almost the same, Blue and light blue, why not have a RED for Danger on my big losers !!!!

They make changes (not unlike BF) which they think are better and which aren't. Anyone who says the changes make the site worse is just seen as resistant to change.
They never change it back.
The changes made to the PGA site are about the worst I've ever seen.

Ski, if I log on to the PGA site using Firefox, I end up with messages saying 'A script on this page may have stoppped working' with the option to continue or stop the script.  Click on 'Stop' and you get another one pooping up. I'm miles behind with paperwork anyway, losing another ten minutes every time it happens does my head in. I'm stuck with McGirt, Fowler, De Jonge and real no-hopers on the Honda.  The less said about the Tshwane the better.  Good luck with yours.
