Defend YOUR country in the
World Golfers Championship
World Golfers Championship (WGC) begins as a National Championship divided into five handicap flights.
The winner from each flight in the national championships (qualifiers) becomes part of the 5-person national team and also gets to defend their flight individually in the world final.
If a winner can't participate, the first capable runner-up takes his/her place to ensure a complete national team!
