Golf Wagering
Four and five round golf events must go a minimum of 54 holes and three round golf events must go a minimum of 36 holes for tournament match-ups and futures to have action.
Golf events must be completed within 7 days of the scheduled conclusion of the event for tournament match-ups and futures to have action.
Adjusted tournament winner wagers have no action if no further golf is played because of a shortened event.
In match-ups and futures, wagers on golfers NOT teeing off to begin an event will be graded no action unless otherwise noted.
Wagers on golfers NOT teeing off in 2nd, 3rd, 4th round, or adjusted tournament match-ups, will be graded no action.
All round match-ups have action regardless of the date the golfers begin/complete the round.
Any single round matchup where it is determined golfers are playing on different courses for that round will be graded no action.
The golfer to complete more holes in a tournament or single round match-up is the winner. If golfers both complete the same number of holes, the golfer with the lower score is the winner.
A golf round is not official until the player's scorecard is signed at the end of a round. If a player is disqualified for signing an incorrect scorecard, the player will be considered withdrawn on the hole with the scoring dispute. All holes completed prior to the scoring discrepancy will count for wagering purposes.
A golf match-up may have a stroke handicap. If the number is positive (+), then you subtract the strokes from the golfer's score. If the number is negative (-), then add those strokes to the golfer's score. The golfer with the lower score after the strokes are applied is the winner.
"Two on One" match-ups involve two golfers' scores being matched up against a single golfer's score. Rules for regular match-ups apply to determine the winner. The lone golfer must defeat both paired golfers' individual scores to win the wager. If the lone golfer and the best individual score from the paired group is a tie, then the wager is a push. Only one of the paired golfers needs to defeat the lone golfer to win the wager.
"Tournament Handicap" odds involve giving a specific stroke bonus to each golfer in a grouping of golfers. At the conclusion of the tournament, the strokes indicated are credited to each golfer's score. The golfer with the lowest score after the stroke handicap is applied to all the golfers is the winner. All scheduled holes must be played for the tournament handicap to have action. Each golfer must complete all scheduled holes to be eligible to win.
NO MENTION of what happens when both players miss the cut so if there are other rules somewhere on their site, I have never seen them. Don't think it changes my week's scoring anyway.
