  I would really like to know how you play a 1 hole practice round. I have been playing for 5 years and never ever seen that?

  There is no 1 hole practice round. You can do 3, 9 or 18 but no single holes.

  O si tacuisses...

  There are two ways:

  1) Select a golf course via top menu: Community - Golf Courses. Select one hole - PLAY HOLE NOW. This has been available "forever".

  2) PLAY NOW - Strokeplay - practice mode - select one course - Holes: "Random 1" - select playing conditions - TEE OFF. From a recent update (less than a year ago).

  i meant there is no option for single hole play on mobile platform

  True. Do you want to practice a given hole?

  No i was referring to above post, where you state 2 ways of playing single hole, as i stated before maybe guy is mobile only player so your options are not available to him

  OIC - this was only one page before your first post but two years earlier - didn't see the connection.

  In retrospective, Champ may have referred to mobile play though there was no hint to it, and I saw "5 years" written by SRBass and excluded mobile from my thoughts because it hadn't been available then.

  Ok took some screenshots on mobile before and after buying and using a club pass as you can see with time shown top left the actual time till next pass continues to drop from 1h6 minutes b4 i bought the pass then to 45minutes after i have bought and used a pass (doesn't revert back to 12 hours)

  May be different on pc, may try it out one day

  Yes it is the same . 12 hours only if not interrupted by buying a pass . Also will change the optimum points scored round . If a pass is bought . 

  See post above, also didn't seem to affect my optimum point score

  Clear as mud ;)

  Thanks for the effort and the proof! I take it as you say, and to be honest, I never looked into that situation in detail.

  The more obvious fact is that you don't receive a free pass while you have one in your account.

  It's possible that this buy-and-use process doesn't touch the clock - perhaps only recently(?) or exclusively on mobile(?), but why has nobody ever objected to the -12 h statement?

  I repeat my mantra: "Don't buy a CC pass. Never!"

  Very true, apart from clash prizes

  which 12hr statement do you refer to? if it is that free passes come 12 hours apart (except during clashes) then i have no objection to that fact

  No idea what this means as long as i use a pass on my first cd game i always receive optimum points, whether i have bought a pass or not during the day

    Okay . First in RWWGTPCGP ( real world WGT PC game play ). Passes and CLASHES work differently . 

    In a RWWGTPCC ( real world WGT PC CLASH ) . The free pass will only be renewed . If the free pass is used in the previous CLASH . 4 hours from once it is used . Not at the beginning of the following CLASH . These free passes are separate from passes that are purchased or gifted . Some how they know the difference .

      In RNCPCP ( regular non CLASH PC play) . The free pass 12 hour cycle will be disrupted by the use of the free pass at times not on your personal must be followed to the tee schedule to continually receive optimum daily points . Easily disrupted in PC play . 

    As will the optimum points round will also not be your first round in your WGT day as a purchased pass prior to that and or an unfinished round in the first round ( sometimes by no fault of the player )  at the start of the WGT day .

  No real experience of rwwgtpcc rwwgtpcgp or rncpcp, mobile play is a different set up, so cannot really respond, the differences don't bother me too much just wish wgt would make cross platform play an option

  ...and keep in mind when you quit early and forfiet, you are also costing the opponent his cc pass! And he/she doesn't get credited either. Bad for everyone! FINISH YOUR GAME!
