  The only way to fix this until WGT see fit to fix this annoyance is to select 'front 9' or 'back 9' in the options.

  For some reason the bug seems to only happen when you select 'any 9'.

  Yes, it seems when the game selects the back 9 it will say it's a 18 hole game. At least for me, all "18 holes" that turned out to be nine have started at hole 10.

  This is happening a lot in Alt Shot games as well.

  I played one the other day and about 3 holes in I noticed as did one of the other players that it was set to 18 holes.  The player who started the match said no it is set to 9 holes and he was correct, when we finished the 8th hole we were 2 up and the game ended.

  I have noticed an unusual number of 18 hole matches being set up for stroke play and alt shot that I think have this same issue.  I generally don't like to play 18 holes in a group so I tend to decline them if I notice it, I have a feeling that most of these are really 9 hole matches that are being displayed incorrectly.

  Need to fix this, it makes the search for games much longer.

  Yes when I'm searching for ANY 9 in matchplay I get taken to 18 hole matches.

  I try to join an 18 hole game and finish up playing back 9. Not had it yet but guess a lot are finding 18 and leaving part way

  On a different note was playing a a/s game my partner had a 12ft putt to win hole and then it came on screen that I forfeited,wtf is going on with this game,it's takes forever getting a game with people thinking you are playing 18,and when you do this *** happens.
