  Is there a way to see the green speed before hitting on to the green? Thank you.

  No. Unless you can create a practice round. If you create a practice round, you can set the green speed and, obviously, would know what it was before you hit your first drive. At least that is what is available on the non-mobile versions.

  In mobile, same answer unless you cannot create a practice round.

  You can also set the green speed if you are in a club and have the ability to create tournament. (Which is up to the club owner to grant the ability to do so).

  Just try to stay between you playing companion's ball and the cup, when landing on the green, then you will finally know the speed when the other player putts.

  Sorry but why would you need it? To get yourself mentally ready for it? ;-P LOL

  Actually, it would be nice to know green speeds sometimes, in the coin rooms, and showdowns, before chipping, or other short approach shot. Especially on PB.

  Not sure if this still works but it used to be that if your opponent hits their approach before you, after they hit their shot and while the ball is in the air, click the Upper-Left corner of the screen twice. If their approach is going to land on the green, the green speed will then be displayed.

  I agree. Didn't mean to be sarcastic, just couldn't resist. ;) Sorry, OP.

  Oh, good to know! Thanks, don.

  It seems that clicking the corner twice does not work.

  However, if you click your heels twice and repeat out loud, there is no place like the green, nothing happens either. So, just another glitch for WGT to fix.

  for head to head coin games. you can.

   

  when the first approach shot is in the air can tap the course icon on top left.

  the slide out menu will appear. if tap that to make it slide back in the green speed will be displayed.

  Obviously this is more beneficial if you have the longest drive and thus get to go second.

  also if do this and don't see the green speed then you know that whomever hit the shot didn't hit the green.

  Thank you. I did not know that.

  I do know that, sometimes, when you hit the slide out menu (on left) and hit any of the options on the menu, then close the menu, chat does not work anymore.
