  Hi, is it possible to show the green speed before you start playing? It is annoying not to know it in a h2h 1 hole game.

  Agree,100%! I've mailed customer support about this suggesting that during one of their occasional meaningless updates(like when all they did was change the banner at the top of the screen,very annoying by the way),if it would be possible to include green speed at the start of the match. Doesn't just affect one hole it applies to all h2h,if you miss the first green.

  Second opinion: When you tee off in real life, do you know the green speed?

  If you've spent some time on the practice green, you might -- or might not be pretty close. But truth be told, until you hit the first putt on a real green, you just don't know, even if you played there yesterday.

  if your playing a tournament it will tell you the wind and the green speed before you click on Tee Off to start the game, if you are playing an individual or more than one person the green speed will be set to the highest tier that is playing

  the green speed is always set to the highest tier player that is playing, do you not know what tier level of the player is when you play on mobile?

  Alas, not true in the coin rooms. At least the ones I occasionally play.

  He he he ...

  I actually found a little tip a while back when playing a round in a coin room.

  If you are playing against an opponent on mobile wgt version, there is a way to see the green speed before you approach the green, IF:

   

  Your opponent approaches the green before you.

  When your opponent makes his/hers approach shot, (right after the swing has been done) quickly go into your profile, then back out. The green speed should now be visible on your screen.

  Profit.
