Nike Virtual Golf Clubs

"We've had great putts. We've had great drives. The time has come for Nike clubs to enter the archives."

Nike virtual golf clubs are no longer available in the WGT Pro Shop, but if you've purchased Nike clubs in the game they will remain in your inventory.

Multiplayer Timeouts - The creator of a multiplayer match can now control the number of Shot Clock timeouts that are allowed before a game ends.

Country Club Tournament Notifications - A new message will appear for all country club members when a new tournament has been published for their country club, so no one misses out on the fun!

Fixes & Improvements

Stand Bag Plus - We've fixed an issue where some players were unable to save a newly equipped putter to their Stand Bag.
Putt Preview - Fixed an issue where the putting grid wouldn't reappear after a player used the Putt Preview feature.
CC Owner Image - Fixed a display issue where a previous country club owner's profile picture was shown instead of the new owner.

I'm surprised you do not mention that you fixed the glitches on the country club home page tournament board. They no longer all read as being played on a "custom course" and the credits are now correct in the tournaments that have them. This is a much welcome glitch fix. It was a major PITA to go through the game client just to find out what course a tourney was on or how many credits were in it.

Also, have not seen any reports of new glitches in the forums today. Job well done!

Thank you.

Also, I get a "continue" button after about only 1/2 my holes. I have to disconnect from the playing window and then "return to game" to get to the next hole(s).
