There is a good chance that I've completely missed it, but is there any way to save a game while in the middle of a tournament? There are times that I'm in the mood to play but I can't necessarily dedicate 30 minutes and it is nearly impossible for me to dedicate 90 minutes to a 3 round tournament. Not to mention that the game gets a bit buggy after about an hour on the PS5. Arguments could be made about abusing a save system to artificially inflate a score, but if I'm in single player mode and it doesn't impact anyone else, I don't see a problem.
This is a poorly designed gamemode. After waiting 5 months I doubt that this will ever changed. I will never play the career.
