Okay, here’s a good one…

…Could anyone here please explain to me (if it’s even possible) what to do or not do to NOT qualify for the Arnold Palmer Invitational? Because I would like to play the alternate Lighthouse Open with one of my already created golfers 🤔 I am NOT creating a new golfer and then purposely fudging all the previous tournaments just so that I can play the alternate……..That’s INSANE!!! 😲🫣😂🤣

    Unfortunately, you would need to create another golfer with lower ratings to get the alternate tournaments. For some tournaments, you can skip a season and rank lower to get the alternate. For others, creating a new golfer would do.

    I wish there actually was an option to pick a tournament you want instead of trying to throw the game like Deontay Porter to get in the alternate tournament.

    I still have a link from EA forum that had the same question, but no other workarounds are present.

  • Obviously, these tournaments are not for expert players like you.  They're either for beginners or casual players trying to rough it up to play Sim, by turning off all aids in the game.
