  • Keep Your Cool in CC Event #115

    26 Dec 2019

    CC Event #115 is going on now!

    Play now through Fri, 12/27 to win these winter snow globe tee markers and flags, plus the top 500 clubs will also receive Course Builder currency for custom courses.

    Don’t know what Course Builders and custom courses are all about? Learn more here.

    Play Now

    PS, did you know: You can earn up to 2X Country Club XP, carry even more CC Passes and generate Passes faster with a WGT Plus or Premier Membership? Upgrade now and the benefits last for an entire year!

    CC Event #115 runs 12/26-12/27 with multiple 4-hour Clashes, so be sure to play as many games as you can for your club and keep your eyes on the leaderboard.

    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!

    Here’s how it works: Each event is made up of Club Clashes which last for a limited amount of time (usually a few hours). When your club enters the event, you’ll be matched with a similar skill level club. Start playing! 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.

    Learn more about CC Events and Club Clashes https://www.wgt.com/help.aspx#clash

    This holiday-themed Showdown is coming your way soon, so stay tuned for more details...

     

    New Year, New Tournaments 

    We’re saying goodbye to 2019 and hello to 2020 with a calendar full of new tournaments, events and series.

    We’ve officially launched the first European eTour series, starting with the European eTour Qualifier: Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship (that ended yesterday). You won’t want to miss the live event, where the top 8 WGT players from this qualifier will compete in-person in Abu Dhabi this January.

    If you loved this first event then get ready for more, because the European eTour is continuing throughout 2020, featuring six live events, including the Global Finals in Dubai next November. 

    Did we mention that the European eTour series has a $100,000 total cash prize? (Yes, you read that right!) So keep an eye out for upcoming qualifiers and tournament details as they’re announced. 

    Also launching in January is the WGT Live Series (which you might remember from last month), that will run all year long. This series will feature monthly live streamed events so you can follow the action in real time!
