WGT Golf News

Spend some quality time on the course with a brand new CC Event! Play today to earn these Caramel Apple Tee Markers and Flags.

If you’re new to CC Events, there are a few things you should know:

• CC Events allow WGT Country Clubs to compete against each other for bragging rights and special in-game rewards.

• The club that earns the most total points from their Clashes wins.

• When your club enters the event, you’ll be matched with a club of a similar skill level and a timer will keep track of how much play is left in that Clash.

• Club members from both sides can play as many rounds as they’d like during that time using Club Passes and Superpasses to earn points.

• WGT Country Clubs can use Course Builder currency to create custom courses to play in country club tournaments.

Each event is made up of Club Clashes that last for 4 hours so be sure to keep playing and keep your eyes on the leaderboard.

WGT is back with the ultimate accuracy test event, Winner’s Circle! Shoot your shot, or several, on Hole 7 at Pebble Beach. 

It’s easy to play! Land your ball in one of the colored rings around the hole (or sink it if you’re really accurate) to win prize chests. Prize chests are color-coordinated to each ring color and include apparel packs, golf ball sleeves, and more. All players get one free shot. Additional shots are available for purchase.

To ensure this is a fair test of accuracy, all players will use designated Winner’s Circle clubs. Everyone is on a level playing fairway!

Three things to keep in mind:

• Winner’s Circle is a limited-time event (11/2/22 - 11/6/22), but any remaining unused purchased shots will stay in your inventory for our next Winner’s Circle event

• Don’t let the timer expire, or you will lose that shot

• The only change from shot to shot will be minor wind direction and speed changes

Test your accuracy today!

Update to WGT Surveys

InBrain surveys are replacing Peanut Lab surveys on the WGT website. The survey-taking experience will remain similar to what you’re used to, but just wanted you to know in case you noticed it looked a bit different. During this transition, surveys will be disabled on Android until the following WGT release.
