Why Prize Money Pools Beat Stroke-Total Scoring

One stroke at the top of the leaderboard is worth way more than one stroke at the bottom. Stroke-total pools miss that, prize money pools capture it.

Every week we publish new articles on running golf pools, strategy for picking sleepers, comparisons of scoring systems, tournament recaps, previews of upcoming majors, and frank guides to the parts of pool-running that nobody else writes about (withdrawals, missed cuts, deadline drama, the social texture of an office tradition).

Tournament recaps drop Monday after each PGA Tour event. Previews land Tuesday before tee-off. Strategy pieces fill the weeks between, frank, specific, written for people who actually run pools, not for people who write about golf.
