WGT Golf News

WGT has teamed up with JDRF in an effort to raise money for critical life-saving research! Join us as we stream with JDRF ambassador PatchNotes, two of WGT’s top players, and a special guest to help reach our $2,000 fundraising goal. 

This week-long event features charity streams from a variety of Twitch Categories and Games, including WGT tonight at 3:45 PM PT/6:45 PM ET. 

Every stream will be hosted by someone who lives with type 1 diabetes or has a family member with the condition, so be sure to tune in to help support JDRF and our WGT community. 

JDRF is the leading global organization focused on type 1 diabetes research. National Diabetes Awareness Month and World Diabetes Day are celebrated every November to raise awareness for diabetes and the impact it has on millions of people worldwide.

We have some in-cider information for you: CC Event #163 is now live, featuring these Bucket of Apples Tee Markers and Flags! 

Now through 11/12, play to win these for your country club, and if you’re one of the top 500 clubs you’ll also receive Course Builder currency for Custom Courses. Learn more about Course Builders and Custom Courses here.

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.

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.

We heard you’re looking for a challenge. Test your aim by hitting the targets in this month’s Winner’s Circle event!

To play, land your ball in one of the colored rings surrounding the cup on the 8th hole at Torrey Pines using special Winner's Circle clubs.

If you land your ball in one of the rings or in the hole 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)
