    Alternate Shot Game Format

     

    We've been having a blast at WGT playing our new Alternate Shot game!

    Alternate Shot is a new fast-paced four-player golf game where two teams compete against each other, taking turns hitting each shot, from drive to final putt. Alternate Shot is available in 9 or 18-hole stroke play games on Bethpage, Kiawah, Oakmont or St Andrews.

    Just visit WGT to create an Alternate Shot game and invite your friends, or find a game with new friends, and be sure to set your status to "ready for a game" so people can easily find you.

    OTHER NEW FEATURES

    Add Friends Add friends during a game by clicking + next to a player's name. Adding friends makes it easier to find multi-player, match play, blitz and alternate shot games.

    Concede Putt A new option to give another player their putt in match play and move on to the next hole.

    Concede Hole A new option to end a hole that you're losing to help speed-up match play games.
