  I 2nd that. We have plenty of players at work but would love more access to different courses, 18 holes would be nice too!!!

  There are always plans to change the course... it's in the works, so to speak.

   

  But for now there is only ONE (1) multiplayer course available at one time.  Currently it is Bethpage Black front 9.

  And, continuing, there are only TWO (2) courses that will allow stroke play, 18 holes, single player.. Kiawah and Bethpage Black.

  There are FOUR (4) "Closest to the Pin" courses available.  THREE (3) of them can be accessed from the "Play Now" button...  Bali Hai, Wolf Creek, and Edgewood Tahoe.  The 4th, St. Andrews, can only be reached from the Tournament section.

   

  Some of you may recognize the redundant post... please forgive, but it's easier to paste.  lol

  I know the wrong thread......but when will Wolf/Bali/Lake Tahoe be open for 18 hole stroke play???

  Love the game but it's getting awfully boring playing the same two tracks again and again.

  Thanks

  4ST OUT!!!

  Possibly never. From various hints I gather that St. Andrews will be the next course to open for stroke play, but I wouldn't know if that will happen in 2009 or in 2010 when the British Open take place there.

  I agree, the front 9 at bethpage black is getting very old. What is the timing plan going forward with switching to a different course? I think only being able to play 1 multi-player course for several months in a row will lead to people getting bored with the game pretty quickly.

  Could we hear the plan on this?  Will there be 18 holes for group play ever?  This year? And will there be multiple courses available or just one rotating? 

  Is there an architectural limitation preventing more courses for group play?

   

  Thanks

  i dont know, but i have been hearing that St. Andrews will be the next course for stroke play? i have no clue if i am right but i would love to see all of these courses we have now including St. Andrews available for stroke play and multiplayer. also, i know this is off topic, but is there any possibility of changing pin positions?

  If anyone has any info on the courses or pins let me know please.
