A golf pool is a competition where participants draft golfers for a tournament and compete based on how their picks perform. On golfpools.co, teams are scored by projected prize money rather than strokes, making it easy to follow along.

How do golf pools work on golfpools.co?

A commissioner creates a pool for any golf tournament, sets up tiers of golfers, and shares an invite code. Each participant picks one golfer from each tier. Scores update live based on projected prize money, and the team with the highest total earnings wins.

Can I run a pool for the Masters or other majors?

Yes — golfpools.co works with any golf tournament, including all four majors: the Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open, and The Open Championship. You can also run pools for any weekly PGA Tour event.

Is golfpools.co free?

Joining a pool is completely free. Creating and managing pools requires a Commissioner subscription at $9.99/month, which you can cancel anytime.
