weekly tournament
why would you -EA- use AUGUSTA NATIONAL a second time let alone any other course in a calendar year when its a once-a-year tournament? makes ZERO sense to me....

@SlimDown57 Yeah, the game is definitely on autopilot. And if I go with EA Rory and other TW games in the past, tournaments are the first thing to end. It's only a matter of time. At least with TW14, we were still able to have Country Club tournaments for a few years.
Got to say, there's nothing arcade about this weekly tournament. This is brutal and not much fun. Guys at -14 are in the top 100 on PS5. I had one of those round in the past, I barely made top 500.
Arcade mode seemed to disappear after the Notorious Update 3 (aka The Simmers 3). If arcade just stayed arcade instead of having an increased difficulty due to a Simmer’s whim, there could still be a player base where the game might not be abandoned.
The mode is mostly fine, but it's not like it used to be in the TW series. Arcade was a game of almost no wind and hole out. This week tournament, EA slapped 12mph wind on Augusta where if we end up on the wrong side of the hole, it's big sharp breaking putt almost impossible to make. I even made a bogey at 9th, by somehow hitting the pin and my ball rolling back halfway down the fairway. I'm far from the only one with a bogey, there's at least 6 golfers on the Top 100 with a bogey this week... on ARCADE set up.
There are 52 weeks in a year, and something like 35 real 18 holes courses in the game, some are going to be used twice. I prefer they used Augusta twice instead of Wolf Creek and Evian.
