  • Get Ready to Grind in a New CC Event

    29 Aug 2024

    Get your club together – it’s time to put in some work on the course! The Hard Hat tee marker and flag is up for grabs in CC Event #236.

    New to CC Events? We’ve got you covered with 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 points from their Clashes wins

    • When your club enters the event, you will match with a club of a similar skill level, and a timer keeps track of how much play remains in that Clash

    • Club members from both sides can play as many rounds as they’d like during the play 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 contains Club Clashes that last four hours, so keep playing and keep your eyes on the leaderboard!

  • September 2024 Game Updates

    The final release of summer is here! We’ve got a Showdown with a matching apparel item, a pretty special new glove and as always, we cleaned up a few things. Check out the full release details below:

    County Fair Showdown

    Summer isn’t over until the County Fair is over. Send off summer in style with the Fifth Annual County Fair Showdown and stake your claim on the top of the leaderboard. Unfortunately, carnival snacks are not included.

    Starts on 9/9

    County Fair Hat

    What’s cooler than the County Fair? A backward camo hat, of course! Take down the competition at the County Fair in this too-cool-for-school cap.

  • Give It Your Best Shot in a New Winner’s Circle

    19 Aug 2024

    Join the Winner’s Circle on hole 10 at Congressional to test your accuracy and win prizes!

    New to Winner’s Circle? No worries, it’s simple to play! Land your ball in one of the colored rings around the hole (or sink it if you can) to win prize chests. Prize chests are color-coordinated with each ring color and include apparel packs, golf ball sleeves and more. All players get one free shot, but additional shots are available for purchase.

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

    Three things to keep in mind:

    • Winner’s Circle is a limited-time event, but any remaining unused purchased shots will stay in your inventory for the 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.

    See you on the tee!
