PGA 2026 Season: What’s New for Commissioners on Splash Sports

Updated over a week ago

With the PGA season fast approaching, we’re getting ready to tee off with several exciting updates to the Splash PGA experience. This year brings expanded flexibility, improved tools, and a refreshed commissioner setup designed to make managing your contest smoother than ever.

Whether you’re running a returning league or setting up a brand-new one, here’s everything you need to know heading into the 2026 season.


Resetting Your PGA Contest

Starting December 4, commissioners will be able to reset their PGA contests—both One & Done and Tiers—directly from the Commissioner tab.

Key Dates

  • Contest reset opens: December 4

  • First available tournament: Sony Open (January 15)

  • Note: The Sentry will not be played this season

Once you begin the reset process, your previous settings will auto-populate, making it easy to review, edit, and launch your new season.


A Refreshed Commissioner Experience

You’ll notice an updated setup flow this season—keeping everything you’re familiar with, but with clearer customization options, smoother navigation, and more flexibility throughout the year. 🏌️

These improvements are designed to help commissioners manage segments, scoring, schedule structures, and player-use rules with greater control.


What’s Improved This Season — At a Glance ⛳️

We’ve expanded several core features and added new tools to help commissioners tailor their PGA contests exactly the way they want.

New & Updated Settings for 2026

  • Expanded Segment Configuration
    Create fully custom segments with flexible tournament grouping and naming.

  • Updated Player-Use Limits
    More control over how often golfers can be selected—per season or per segment.

  • Alternate Picks
    Optional backup picks to protect entrants from late withdrawals.

  • Automatic Picks (Autopicks)
    Assigns a golfer automatically if an entrant misses a pick.

  • Flexible Tournament Multipliers
    Precisely adjust tournament weighting with values from 0.05 to 10.

  • NEW: Total Strokes Scoring Option
    A popular EO-style scoring method now available for One & Done on Splash.

These updates unlock a more customizable setup flow and give commissioners more ways to run a contest that fits their group.
