  IM PLAYING MY FIRST 3 HOLES IN VETERANS SHOWDOWN, MY OPPONENT LOOSES HIS BALL ON HIS 2nd SHOT ON THE FIRST HOLE, HE QUITS ! THE GAME GOES IN ERROR MODE, HIT RETRY OR CANCEL!  I HIT RETRY OVER AND OVER AGAIN NOTHING HAPPENS STILL IN ERROR MODE, SO I HIT CANCEL, GAME OVER! IM GIVEN 3 BOGEYS AND I HAVE NOT EVEN FINISHED A HOLE YET !!!

  I have messaged WGT for a refund and still waiting, but this is not the first time this has happened! It’s a glitch that has to be fixed for good!

  As has been said before don’t hit cancel or retry , just force the closure of the app , come straight back into the app , and you will be offered resume saved game , then you can continue on your own . At least that’s how it should work !

  On the Count down showdown tourney: The tourney started me out as +3 on the first 3 hole...never started the tournament. Why did I have +3?

  Tried that Bossbird, it did resume on the same hole but still in spin mode with error Cancel or Retry ! ……

  This is a OLD GLITCH! That should have been fixed a long time ago ! Also playing in Veteran's Showdown they put you in a room where mostly Masters and below play, I’ve had them tell me your the 4th high level player I’ve played here today! Are you guys trying to steal my coins and than the quit ! 

  Im so pissed off with this Showdown

  Did you perhaps quit while it was looking for your first match up?  The match up is made while you are still seeing the rotating pictures.   So when you came back, it would have given you 3 bogeys for that first match  up (which you didn't see  but which became a forfeit).

  If you know this is a well known glitch and after what seems like 5 million forum posts alluding to the same problem and wgt's inability to fix the issue .....then why the hell would you or anyone play the nonsense ?

  The best way this whole showdown thing could be fixed is for it to be solo rounds with no coins involved, surely WGT could introduce that format. Lower tiers complain about legends and above playing in rookie but not everyone is willing to spend 100 or 1000 credits to enter this glitchy set up. Another answer could be having all levels the same entry fee but tier specific, such as Rookie up to TM, Veteran Legend & TL, and Expert Champ & TC.

  Think that second idea is the best , but it’s been proposed before and still no change . As things stand it just seems to p more and more people off .

  Those 2 possible changes by post above are great ! Much better than what is happening now, it should eliminate a lot of quitting!
