In WGT's tie-in with the R&A for The Open Championship, it may release further courses in the rota in future years, but so far no long-range commitment between WGT Media and the R&A has been announced. There has always been criticism from some of WGT's playerbase, a portion of which is aimed at WGT Media's business model and the "jumpy meter." The "meter", a moving bar used to give the desired direction to the shot, is often disturbingly "jumpy" (as non-fluid) and results in a considerable disruption of the gaming experience. Some players speculate that it is left unpatched by WGT to further encourage microtransactions for better equipment; which, while alleviating some of the game's difficulty, can cost upwards of US$20.00 for a single club. Another concern has been "sandbagging", a term coined by the community to discuss an ongoing issue of skilled players artificially lowering their average score. This practice is used to compete in tournament brackets far below the skill level of the "sandbagger", thus giving them a better chance to place high and win in-game credits at the expense of the other players. Finally, quitting the game before completion has been a concern since the early years of WGT. It typically occurs when a player is performing poorly and decides to abandon the game, so as to preserve their average score. Players have repeatedly called for WGT to tank a person's score when they habitually quit as a deterrent to this behavior. In an attempt to remedy these concerns a "reputation indicator" was introduced, showing players the percentage of finished games of others before the round is started. The advent of "challenge" games, which require an amount of non-redeemable credits to be put upfront are lost if the player leaves, has also discouraged quitting. Nonetheless, some in the community still clamor for some sort of punishment to a quitter's score, despite the fact that quitting forfeits a match for the offender and doesn't negatively impact the score of other players. WGT Media enters into license agreements with real golf courses and tournament owners such as the United States Golf Association (USGA) and the R&A. WGT has also made agreements with equipment providers and other companies including TruGolf, Taylor Made, Adams Golf, Ping, Lynx, Nike, Snake Eyes Golf, Cleveland, Callaway, Titleist, Srixon, Loudmouth Golf, American Express, Sky Golf, Adidas Golf, Ketel One vodka, Lexus, Old Granddad bourbon, and Pilsner Urquell.
