The Gentleman's Gamble
Every week you back a single golfer on the PGA TOUR, and their official tournament earnings become your points. The biggest events carry multipliers — majors pay double, signature and playoff events 1.5×. One pick, no safety net, a full season chasing the purse.
How it works
Simple to play, brutal to master.
Back a golfer
Each week, before the first tee time, you pick one golfer from that tournament's field. Just one. Lock it in.
Win what they win
You score a point for every dollar of prize money your golfer earns that week. Majors pay double, signature and playoff events pay 1.5×. Miss the cut and you score nothing.
Spend your stars
Use a golfer once and they're off your card for the rest of the season — unless they win, which puts them back in play. Outlast the field to the season-long purse.
The scoring
No projections, no fractional points. Your score is your golfer's official PGA TOUR earnings, converted straight to points.
$1 earned = 1 point
If your golfer banks $1,250,000 at a tournament, that's 1,250,000 points for your team that week. Straight from the official purse.
Prestige boosts
The biggest weeks count for more. Majors multiply your golfer's earnings by 2×; signature events and the FedEx playoffs by 1.5×.
The once-only rule
Every golfer can be used just once per season. Burn your favorite early and you can't come back to them — unless they win the tournament, which restores them to your card.
Miss the cut, score zero
If your pick misses the cut or withdraws, you earn nothing that week. No exceptions. Choosing a safe name has a cost too.
A full-season chase
Points accumulate every week. The standings build all season long as teams separate themselves toward the top of the board.
The postseason
The strongest teams carry into a playoff run at the end of the season to settle who takes the purse. Commissioners set the stakes for their own league.
