  Hello.  I'm new to WGT.  I just created my own country club and want to create a tournament.  I've been able to setup but can't create groups.  How do you set up so club members can play together in same foursome?  Is this even possible?  Does everyone play tournament course individually by themselves?  It's not as fun this way.

  I've been able to do with a non-tournament "Multi-Player" game.  Can't do for tournament though.

  Thank you.

  You can only play an in-house CC tourney on your own I believe.

  Any tournament in this game is solo play only.

  Thanks for the feedback.

  That's not good.  Part of the fun with this is actually playing with other people (in the same group).  Playing on your own is not much fun.  Kind of like real golf.  Playing solo is not nearly as much fun.  They need to fix this in software.

  They have option for "Multi-player" group in non-tournament setting.  Why don't they allow in tournaments?  Kind of silly.

  In PC you can play with 4 people at the same time. Mobile only two. Non-tournament.

  You can setup a bracket on Challonge.com and then do the head to head, Match Play or Foursomes.

  I had been thinking about doing this in my club.

  Here is the link for Challonge.com

  We do this a few times in our club Don. It's a lot of fun.

   

  Some times we have whats called a Rock ball tournament were you can only use a starter ball.

  The starter ball sounds like fun. i have tried doing starter club tournaments, there is always 1 guy that uses his regular clubs.

  Icon said they didn't put that in the game because there it would be too easy to cheat, In real tournament golf you can't give advice during play, There would be no way to keep players from giving advice in this setting so they never put it in the game and probably never will.
