MPSP 2025 Rules and Pertinent Info Format: One and Done. You can only pick a golfer once. Can't reuse him again. How You're Scored: Your "cumulative earnings" which form the basis of our standings is what the golfer you pick earned for that week. For example, if I pick Scottie Scheffler and he wins the tournament that paid out $1.6M to the winner, I get that amount for standings purposes. It goes without saying, but tournaments like the Masters pay out more than tournaments like the Sony Open and this may or may not form the basis of your pick strategy. Prizes: I structure this league so that there are multiple ways to win a fair amount of money and also for you to win your entry fee back. Exact amounts will be announced after Week 4 (or when all payments are submitted, if earlier) 1. Overall Season Typically pays out places 1-10 or 1-15. 2. Segments In addition to the overall season prize, the season is broken into four segments and these serve as "mini seasons" so that the PGA TOUR season is never really over for you. Like overall season, standings are based on cumulative earnings. Some segments pay out more than others based on the caliber of the tournaments in that segment. Typically pays out place 1-10. Check out the Schedule tab on the website to see how the Segments are broken up this year. 3. Majors Only Cumulative earnings for Majors Only. Self explanatory. 4. Commissioner's Cup Pot dedicated to the PGA TOUR's "Signature Events" 4. Consecutive Cut Streak This is a fun one, typically pays out top two streaks. 5. Solo Pick Pot aka "Skins" This will be one big pot for anyone who gets a "solo pick" aka a skin (you pick a player that nobody else picks and that player finishes higher than everyone else's picks that week). Can't wait for this one. This keeps things entertaining for everyone throughout the entire season/segments. All prize amounts are TBD based on signups and can be viewed on the Prizes tab after the season begins. Other Rules: Alternate Picks: When you make your pick on the website, you'll see it asks you for an alternate. Your alternate is triggered two ways: 1. Your main pick isn't in the tournament/doesn't tee off (the system will automatically trigger your alternate pick) 2. Your main pick WDs before the end of round 1 (the system will automatically trigger your alternate pick; In each scenario (1)-(2) you will be able to re-use your original main pick in future tournaments. If the main pick withdraws after Round 1 is completed, he is lost for the season. Cut Streak Rule: Due to complicated downstream impacts for both the standings and the website, your golfer MUST finish the tournament to be considered a cut made. So, if he makes the cut and WDs on Saturday or Sunday for some reason.. then that's a stroke of bad luck for you my friend. Pick Deadlines: Each week there is a pick deadline. You can find it on the Lineup tab. No late picks are accepted. Ever. Don't care if your dog ate your homework. Commissioner Discretion: As commissioner I try to make things as equitable as possible and reserve the right to make a rule modification in a dire situation. That said, I may have to step in and do what I think is right (after consulting with many others) if the situation calls for it.
