Scoring in Fantasy Golf

ID: SLN6370
Refers to: Fantasy Golf

Description

This article explains how scoring is determined for each round of a Fantasy Golf tournament.


Resolution

A golfer can receive a maximum of 20 fantasy points in each round of a tournament. The golfer with the lowest real-life score in a round receives 20 points. Other golfers receive two fewer points for every stroke that they finish behind the leader -- i.e., a golfer one stroke back for the round receives 18 points; a golfer two strokes back gets 16. Golfers 10 or more strokes back receive zero points.

Example: If the leader of round 3 shoots a 67 and your golfer shoots a 72, you would get 10 points because your golfer is five strokes behind the leader of that particular round.

Keep in mind that the points are awarded based on the number of shots behind the leader of each round, and not the overall tournament leader.

You receive the total points earned by all active golfers on your team over all four rounds.

If a tournament round is officially canceled, no team will receive any points for that round. All other scoring rules stay the same. If a round is delayed or postponed, no points will be awarded until it is completed.
