Play CC Event #10 going on NOW through Fri, 10/23.

Halloween is near and CC Event #10's pumpkin tees and flags add great fear! 

Ok, maybe not fear, but definitely fun.

Compete against other country clubs for in-game rewards, club pride and NEW Halloween-themed pumpkin tee markers and flags.

Go to Country Club

CC Events allow WGT Country Clubs to compete against each other for golf glory and special in-game rewards. The club that earns the most total points from their Clashes wins.

Each Event is made up of Club Clashes that last for a limited amount of time (usually a few hours). When your club enters the event, you'll get matched with another club close to your skill level, and a timer will show how much time is left in that Clash. Club members from both clubs can play as many rounds as they want during that time, using Club Passes and Superpasses to earn points.
