April brings showers, and with it, a brand new Rainy Day Showdown – starting today, 4/6!

To join, just log on to WGT Golf (on mobile or desktop) and follow the signs to enter the Showdown – don't worry if you don’t make the day 1 cut, you'll have two more chances to qualify…

Here are the rules for this week’s Rainy Day Showdown:

Qualifying Round

• The qualifying round lasts three days, each day is a new chance to qualify for the elimination round

• During the qualifying round, the top 50% of the leaderboard advance to the elimination round

• Players that qualify on day 1 (top 50%) do not need to compete in days 2 or 3 of the qualifying round

• Players that do not qualify on day 1 can still compete on days 2 or 3 to advance

Elimination Round

• The elimination round lasts two days, with players having only one chance to advance to the final round

• The top 50% of the leaderboard qualifies for the final round

Final Round

• The final round lasts two days

• All players that make it to the final round will win prizes, and higher ranks win bigger prizes!

Other Things to Know

• Scoring is based on total strokes, meaning the fewer shots you take to complete your matches, the higher you will rank on the leaderboard

• Any incomplete or forfeited holes will be scored as bogeys

CC Event #122 runs 4/2-4/3 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.
