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

    21 Feb 2024

    Step right up to the Winner's Circle. We’re taking shots at Pebble Beach this month. See you at the tee on hole 12!

    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!

    Take your shot(s)

  • Be Our Valentine? (We'll give you a free gift...)

    14 Feb 2024

    We're spreading the love today with a free ball effect! All players get a free Heart Ball Effect (50 hits) just for logging onto WGT today (2/14).

    Log in and play WGT as usual to receive your free ball effects. The Heart Ball Effect will automatically be added to your inventory but not automatically equipped. If you want to use your ball effect, be sure to equip it before your next swing.

    Happy Valentine's Day from WGT! ❤️
