  • 🎯 Winner’s Circle is Going on Now!

    04 Aug 2021

    Put your accuracy to the test in Winner’s Circle, happening this week.

    To play, land your ball in the hole or one of the colored rings surrounding the cup using special Winner's Circle clubs.

    If you land your ball in one of the rings you’ll win prize chests, which include items like apparel packs, sleeves of golf balls and more. Each prize chest is coordinated to match a ring of the same color on the green. 

    A few things to know:

    • All players will use the same exclusive Winner’s Circle-branded club set
    • The hole, pin placement, green speed and wind rating will not change from one shot to the next, however you may see slight wind direction and wind speed changes

    • If the timer expires before you take your shot, that shot will be lost

    • Winner's Circle is a limited-time event, so any remaining shots will stay in your inventory and can be used in future events (*excludes free shots that are only available during that event)

    Good Luck!
