Entering a tournament unwillingly

  Steps to reproduce:

  Today I wanted to play a single-player (ranked) CTTH course. I started the client window, clicked CTTH in main menu, chose St. Andrews cource and hit the Tee off button.

   

  Expected result:

  Playing a single-player ranked round of CTTH holes.

   

  Actual result:

  I've received an email about successfull entering the "September St Andrews Sweeps". However my intent was NOT to enter any tournament. I assume that everybody who plays a game that matches a tournament, automatically enters the tournament.

   

  Bottom line:

  This is definitely not a serious bug, however tournament entering shoould be done purely "explicit", if you understand me. But maybe I'm wrong..(sorry for this post in such case:-))

   

  Thanks,

  Darkriser

  I don't really see the issue.

  CTTH comps are all unlimited play, so if you shoot a bad score, it will not matter.

  This one is a sweeps, so WGT gives you a chance to win no matter how you shoot.

   

  I can understand if you were automatically entered into the weekly single play but there is no down side to the CTTH ones.

   

  Happy hitting

  I absolutely agree with your answer.

  As I wrote - this is not a real bug (in terms of "not working"), I was only surprised when I received the automated mail about tournament entering, however wasn't aware of entering any. Just confusion, nothing else.

  Many thanks for the answer.

  Use the CTTH choice on the left side of the game client for CTTHs you want to practice on. You're clicking on the one listed under the Tournaments tab.

  Not true YJ

  If you play any single player CTTH it automatically enters you if there is a tournament on that course.

  Thanks, SC, I stand corrected. Did not know that.
