One and Done - Dollar Winnings 

Pick one golfer each week. Entrants earn points equivalent to the sum of each golfer's earnings week over week. Once you select a golfer for 1 tournament, you will not be able to select that golfer again.

Set Your Schedule

Based on the format selected in the previous step, you’ll have some schedule settings to make. Confirm which tournaments you’d like to include in your contest and the tournament your contest will begin with.

Entry Fee Options

This golf season, we’re allowing commissioners to keep self-managing their contests, or we’ll take the weight off your shoulders and collect the entry fees. If you let Splash collect entry fees, we will collect all entry fees for participants in your contest. You’ll also have the ability to set automatic payouts with our segmented payouts settings. You can control how many entrants you’d like to pay out, the payout structure, and the payout segments. 

Players Picked per Tournament

Select the number of golfers a user in your contest will be picking per tournament. If you select four, users will have to pick four golfers across four tiers in your contest. Golfers will be automatically placed into tiers based on their projected performance for the upcoming tournament. 

Player Use Limit

If your contest spans multiple tournaments, you can place a limit on how many times a user can select a specific golfer. For example, if the Player Use Limit is set to one, you can select Scottie Scheffler for the first tournament but cannot pick him in subsequent tournaments. 

Drop Worst Golfer Score

If enabled, the worst golfer in a user’s lineup will be automatically dropped from their total score. For example, if you have six golfers picked per tournament, and my drop use limit is enabled, the total score on the leaderboard will only include my top five golfers. This is useful if one of your golfers does not make the cut for a tournament.
