Elevate your game to new heights with new TaylorMade balls – free when you purchase WGT credits today!

Purchase 2,000 or more WGT credits, and you’ll automatically receive a free sleeve of TaylorMade TP5x Balls (L48+). Instantly improve your game by adding a slower swing meter, adding distance, and increasing spin.

Upgrade the rest of your equipment with those WGT credits to bolster your game even more. Stop by the Pro Shop for a new set of irons to increase performance, or grab some fresh threads for your avatar to strut on the course. Either way, the competition won’t know what hit them!

Please note that these free TaylorMade balls will be automatically added to your inventory but will not equip automatically.

If it’s your first time playing in a Showdown, here is everything you need to know.

Qualifying Round

• The qualifying round lasts three days

• Players have a daily chance each day of the qualifying round to secure their spot in the elimination round

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

• Players that qualify on day one (top 50%) do not need to play on day two or three of the qualifying round

• Players that do not qualify on day one are still eligible to compete on days two or three to secure an elimination round spot

Elimination Round

• The elimination round lasts two days

• Players only get one chance to grab a spot in the final round, unlike the qualifying round

• The top 50% of the elimination round leaderboard advance to the final round

Final Round

• The final round also lasts two days

• If you’ve made it this far, you’ll receive a prize no matter what, but the higher you rank, the bigger the prizes

Other Things to Know

• We base scoring on total strokes, meaning the fewer shots you take to complete your matches, the higher you rank on the leaderboard

• Incomplete or forfeited holes score as bogeys

The Year of the Rabbit Showdown is open to all players on WGT for PC, WGT for Mac, and WGT Golf Mobile!

New to CC Events? We’ve got you covered with 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 points from their Clashes wins

• When your club enters the event, you will match with a club of a similar skill level, and a timer keeps track of how much play remains in that Clash

• Club members from both sides can play as many rounds as they’d like during the play time using Club Passes and Superpasses to earn points

• WGT Country Clubs can use Course Builder currency to create custom courses to play in country club tournaments

Each event contains Club Clashes that last four hours, so keep playing and keep your eyes on the leaderboard!

WGT’s ultimate accuracy test is heading east! Start the year strong by shooting your shot on Hole 10 at Congressional in the first Winner’s Circle event of 2023.

New to Winner’s Circle? It’s simple to play! Land your ball in one of the colored rings around the hole (or sink it if you’re really accurate) to win prize chests. Prize chests are color-coordinated to each ring color and include apparel packs, golf ball sleeves, and more. All players get one free shot. Additional shots are available for purchase.

To ensure this is a fair test of accuracy, all players will use designated Winner’s Circle clubs. Everyone is on a level playing fairway!

Three things to keep in mind:

• Winner’s Circle is a limited-time event (1/11/23-1/15/23), but any remaining unused purchased shots will stay in your inventory for our next Winner’s Circle event

• Don’t let the timer expire, or you will lose that shot

• The only change from shot to shot will be minor wind direction and speed changes
