  hi

  I think you have to put in your address in 'account' tab and it will check the rest.

  if it still does not work, please drop us an email at members@worldgolftour.com and we can check into it for you.

  My address is in the account tab with all my info.

  Here's what I get when I click that message for eligibility:

  Thank You

  Your date of birth has been accepted and you are now eligible to play in most WGT Tournaments. Skill gaming laws in your country/state do not allow you to play in some wgt tournaments.

  Certain states and countries do not allow gaming (betting). So any tourny or game where you have to pay out credits to play is not allowed by your state of residence. I live in Tennessee and am not allowed to play any of these games or tourneys either.  Hope this helps!
