Pick 3 golfers for each week's PGA golf tournament with the option to substitute 1 golfer with another after the 2nd round. (Note that a golfer can only be used TWICE* throughout the course of the RGFGC season.)

Points are awarded based on how much money each selected golfer wins in each tournament.

Feb 28 - Aug 11 (24 weeks)

Prize money is awarded to the top performers in the overall season and each of the 6 sessions (4 weeks each).

About 5-10 minutes every Wednesday night to pick your starting lineup and about 1-2 minutes every Friday night / Saturday morning to select your sub.

$100

The goal of the challenge is to accrue the most earnings by selecting PGA golfers to compete for you over a season of 24 tournaments. Each week you will select 3 golfers who will compete as part of your team. At designated times during each tournament, as outlined below; you will be allowed to make golfer substitutions. The total winnings accrued by the 3 golfers in your lineup at the END of each tournament will be added to your total season winnings. Total season winnings are used to determine the season winners.

In addition to the season competition, there are 6 separate session competitions. The six sessions are composed of four tournaments (occasionally 5 tournaments). Typically, Session 1 is weeks 1-4, Session 2 is weeks 5-8, and so on. During each session, each team will accrue winnings and the two top teams in each session will win prizes; $100 for first and $50 for second. This will be paid using the first $900 out of the prize pot. The balance, will be used to pay the larger season prizes.

You may only use a golfer TWICE* during the season. Once you have used a golfer twice, you may not use him for the rest of the season - except when using a MULLIGAN (see below). Anytime a golfer appears in your lineup, it counts as one of his two uses.

You must submit your 3 starting golfers via the website prior to first round play beginning each Thursday. The weekly lineup page will display the cutoff time for each tournament as times can vary from tournament to tournament. For most tournaments, the cutoff time is 8:00 AM central time. Upon submitting your lineup, you will receive a confirmation e-mail with your starting lineup.

Each golfer you submit for your starting lineup will earn you TWICE the winnings he is awarded (if he makes the cut and wins any money). After the cut has been determined at the completion of the 2nd round on Friday, you may substitute a golfer for ONE of the golfers you submitted in your starting lineup. However, the new golfer is only eligible for SINGLE winnings and both he and the golfer he was substituted for will be designated as having used 1 week of their 2 week eligibility. Your sub must be received by prior to the start of 3rd round play (usually Saturday 9 AM central time).

Each team will receive 6 mulligans that can be used during the RGFGC season. There are two ways in which a mulligan can be used:

1. A mulligan may be used to use a golfer a third time (assuming you've already used him twice). This golfer is eligible for double winnings if he is in your starting lineup, single winnings if used as a third or fourth round sub.
2. A mulligan may be used for a fourth round sub, but that golfer will only be awarded single winnings. If you have used him twice already, you will be charged 2 mulligans (one for his third use and another for a Sunday sub). Note that you may only use 1 fourth round mulligan per week.

Any time a mulligan is used to pick up a golfer, it will count towards his usage limit for the season (which cannot exceed 3). The website tracks all golfer usages for each team and makes it easy to know how many times you've used a golfer prior to submitting your lineup. However, you are SOLELY responsible for ensuring that your selected golfers are playing in each week's tournament as all 125+ PGA players are selectable each week. In the rare case you wish to start/sub a golfer not listed in the drop-downs, e-mail the commissioner so he can add the golfer to the list. If there is not enough time prior to a deadline, choose any other golfer as a proxy and send an e-mail to the commissioner notifying him of your intentions. The commissioner is able to adjust your lineup after the fact.

Lineup entry deadlines will be adjusted as needed to accommodate weather delays or tournament postponements. Always check the RGFGC website for any updates.

In the rare case a golfer is started and withdraws prior to teeing off or NEVER plays in the tournament (with burden of proof on the team owner), he will not be charged a usage. However, if he plays even one hole and then withdraws or gets disqualified, you are out of luck! It is up to the affected owner to notify the RGFGC commissioner that a golfer did not start/play. At that time the commissioner will update your lineup with a NO SHOW entry that can replaced with a 3rd round sub. In summary, you can forgo the usage charge, but you can't fill the spot until the 3rd round.

The season begins the first week of March and runs through mid-August. This results in a season of 24 weeks. This schedule includes all 4 majors plus the TPC, but ends just prior to the start of the Fantasy Football season.

See Prize Money Schedule.

About 5-10 minutes every Wednesday night to pick your starting lineup and about 1-2 minutes every Friday night / Saturday morning to select your sub.

Your league entry fee MUST be paid in full prior to the start of the challenge. Otherwise, you will not be able to login into the site to submit your starting lineup for week #1. (Note: Receive a $25 discount off your entry fee for every new owner you bring into the pool -- up to a maximum of 4 owners, of course.)
