  Hi Paul,

                The reason there's so Brackets on NV is because once either Cabo or Whistler is in any of the rounds they don't show up on NV.

  Easiest solution is to just enter your Brackets on https://www.wgt.com/home.aspx  (Home Page/Forum Site) cos as you rightly pointed out Gameclient (Flash) will be gone soon whereas the Home Page (WGT.com) will be sticking around.

  Once you enter your Brackets on the "Home Page" then when you go to play on NV all you've entered will be under "My Tournaments" on NV don't get alarmed if you click on any of those Brackets on NV to see what the courses are for each round & you see a blank, it's just a "Glitch" as Whistler/Cabo are Tru Golf Courses & as so are not listed in reg Strokeplay as WGT Courses & as you said i wouldn't worry about it as when Flash goes we'll be losing Cabo & Whistler, i hope that changes :(  but as it stands we will be losing them at the same time as Flash

  - As Scott posted with a video explanation, you need to go into your options and change your Equipment to ADVANCED

  - as far as the brackets, WGT made Cabo and Whistler FREE to play until the end of Flash. So because they are free WGT has been adding rounds of Cabo and Whistler to all the brackets. The problem with this is that Cabo and Whistler are not available on the PCEA so they do not show up.   
  If you want to play the brackets your best bet is to play them on Flash until it ends. Once it’s gone WGT will stop adding these two courses and they should reappear in PCEA as normal.

  Hi Marchie,

                    I play my daily Brackets on NV even if they contain Cabo or Whistler, no need to switch back to Flash to play them, they are there once you've entered the Bracket'

  Hi Paul,

               One caveat with playing Brackets or RG's at Whistler, there's an on/off Glitch on #14, the game freezes sometimes, it use to be thought that it happened if you hit the rough at the end of the Fairway just short of the green but it happened me twice recently when hitting the Fairway.

  Unfortunately there's nothing you can do to continue on NV, if you close & reopen if only gives you the choice to either Forfeit or Switch/Continue on Flash

  There is a glitch that has always been on mobile and is in the new desktop version as well. In CTTH rounds no matter how bad or good the shot is the game shows it as your new best shot on the scorecard. That is the score is a black number surrounded by the white background.

  I find it almost impossible to really putt well in this new format.  The graphics are terrible.  Having the large information block attached to the pointer obstructs the putting alignment view to the point of making proper alignment impossible.  Additionally, having the grid disappear in front of the player when aligning a putt in reverse view  totally conflicts with putt alignment.  The old format putting alignment system needs to be included in this new format.  It is far superior to this new format.  As it is now, I don't think I will be playing WGT golf much longer.  This putting format and graphics totally ruins this game.
