    This will be the last product update of the year. We would like to take this time to wish everyone happy holidays :)

    New


    Custom Golf Courses


    WGT Country Clubs can now create custom courses to play in country club tournaments. We'll be sharing a "how-to" guide later that helps explain the new feature, including:

    • How to get started building custom courses
    • How to play your new courses
    • How to get the new Course Builder currency

    Celebration WGT Golf Balls


    Celebrate special occasions or maybe just a long day on the job with a beer or champagne virtual golf ball on WGT!

    The Beer Ball on WGT features a foamy vapor trail and the Champagne Ball features a bubbly vapor trail, both to better trace your shot through the air. These virtual golf balls also make great gifts during the holiday season and can be found in the Pro Shop!

    Cheers! 


    High-Level Sabertooth Putter


    This new, high-level version of the popular Odyssey Sabertooth virtual putter is great for top WGT players that want to improve their putting and lower their scores. Unlocks at (Level 98) in the Pro Shop

    Fixes and Improvements

     

    • "Invite Friends" Button - Fixed an issue where the option to invite friends from the Main Menu wasn't working, but players are now able to invite friends as expected
    • Incomplete 18-Hole Game - Some players experienced an issue when trying to play 18-hole games, where the game would end after 9 holes regardless, which has been fixed
    • Tier List - Fixed a display issue where some players weren't seeing the tier list displayed correctly

    Do rounds on custom courses affect your scoring average?

    The tourney descriptions at our CC have also all changed to "custom course" when viewed on the "Tournaments" page at the CC and the leaders (and my own score, lol) don't show at all. . . on that page. . . but the leaderboards do show who has played the rounds so far.

    My mouth dropped open when I looked at the club tournament page.  However, when I clicked on one of the leaderboard links the rounds are still all there.

    It wouldn't be an update without a few screw-ups would it?
