Pool Rules

The rules every PGA Pick'Em pool plays by. Your pool admin sets the weekly entry fee and whether you're playing for points or money.

Weekly Pool

Seven golfers a week

Each tournament week you pick seven golfers on the Entry Form.

At least three ranked 20+

Three of your seven must be ranked 20th or higher (20+). If not, you'll see an error and your entry will not save.

Picks lock at the first tee time

Picks lock at the first tee time of the tournament's first round (Eastern). Change your picks as often as you like until then.

After the lock

Once locked, only a pool admin in admin mode can change picks.

No picks = even par

If you did not make picks, you score even par (0) for that week.

Your weekly score

Official scores to par are loaded for each golfer. Your weekly score is the total of your seven golfers.

Missed the cut

A golfer who misses the cut counts the score they had for the tournament, through the cut.

Lowest score wins; ties split

The lowest weekly score wins the week. If players tie, they split the week.

Season standings

Every week's score adds to your annual total. The lowest season total wins.

Your pool admin

PLEASE NOTE: Every time your pool admin logs in they are logged in as a user. The pool admin can switch to Admin mode and then change users' picks for locked tournaments, see users' picks for upcoming tournaments that are hidden, and manage all users' settings.

Scores are loaded from ESPN by the site administrator. Weekly winners and season totals update automatically.
