Mario Golf: World Tour is a bit brilliant, and even when you've gone through the single player action there's much more to do — the online options are potentially never-ending.

Now, by popular demand and because it's too good a chance to pass up, we're going to be running our own weekly tournaments that are decided by you. Well, one of them will be. Here's how it'll work:

  • Every week we'll run a seven day 'vanilla' tournament, which will be light on crazy features and will use courses that the majority should know well.
  • When we announce that tournament we'll run a series of polls. We'll then take the results of those polls to create a (potentially) wacky tournament — the polls will cover all (non DLC) courses and customisation options. We'll then take the results of those polls every Sunday and post a fresh article with the relevant tournament code. This will be a 5 day tournament.
  • That cycle will be repeated for as long as we're all having fun.

To start off, below are the details for the seven day tournament that's open right now. To access it you'll need to select "Search by Code" in the "Private Tournament" area of the Mario Golf Quick Play section.

  • Code 01-3443-2483-8345, tournament name NLife Open.
  • This is 18 holes on the Forest Course (first course in the Castle Club). Stroke play, no items, coins slots or coins.

This one should be easy for anyone to play, while the pros among you can aim for ridiculous scores to show your prowess.

As for the second tournament, that's all up to you. Answer the polls below, the results of which will create the "NLife Masters" tournament to be announced on Sunday.
