1) Weekly Contest Format
How weekly scoring works
Pick 1 PGA pro + submit your best 18-hole round
A. PGA Tour Pro Selection
Each week, every player drafts one PGA Tour professional as their “Playing Partner.”
Your pro’s score is their total score to par at the conclusion of that week’s PGA Tour event.
If your pro misses the cut, your pro’s score defaults to the
cut line score
, not their actual score.
Example (missed cut):
If you select a player who finishes
+1
but the cut line is
-1
, your pro score for the week is
-1
.
B. Your Personal Score
You may submit multiple 18-hole rounds during the week (Monday–Sunday).
Your lowest (best) round to par for that week is the score that counts.
Only 18-hole rounds qualify.
C. Weekly Score Calculation
Weekly Total
= Best 18-Hole Score to Par
+
Pro’s Final Score to Par
Lowest combined score wins.
2) Weekly Draft Rules
Timing, order, swaps, withdrawals
Draft window + deadline enforcement
A. Draft Timing
The weekly draft opens Monday at 12:00 PM or immediately after the prior PGA Tour event concludes (if it ends Monday).
You may post personal scores before drafting, but your pro must be selected before the weekly draft deadline.
B. Draft Order
Draft order is determined by highest handicap first, lowest handicap last (among active participants that week).
C. Changing Picks
Pro selections may be swapped only after all participants have drafted.
All changes must be finalized by 11:59 PM the day before the PGA Tour event begins.
D. Withdrawals
If your pro withdraws after the draft deadline or during the tournament, your pro score defaults to the cut line score.
