• Game Style: One & Done – Dollar Winnings
Schedule
You can choose:
• All PGA Events
• Exclude specific events (e.g., The Genesis Invitational)
• Manually select your slates
Important:
The slates you select determine which tournaments require picks.
Prizes are distributed after all selected tournaments are completed. This contest does not pay out weekly.
Tour Championship Option
You will be asked:
Would you like to include the Tour Championship? Will need to click to include or exclude.
Note: The Tour Championship purse is typically at least 3x larger than other events. Including it may heavily impact final standings.
Select Starting Tournament
The earliest tournament you select becomes the official start of your contest.
Important:
• All entrants must join before the first selected tournament begins
• Late entry is not permitted once the contest starts
Step 3: Entry Settings
Entry Fee
Select your entry fee amount.
Splash will:
• Collect entry fees
• Handle payment processing
• Automatically distribute payouts
Commissioner Rewards (Optional)
If you opt in:
• Splash deducts 7.5% for payment processing & administrative fees
• An additional 5% of the prize pool is paid directly to you
This option compensates you for organizing and managing your contest.
Payout Structure
You may choose to:
• Pay out overall winners only
• Create payout segments
• Pay out individual tournament winners
Important:
To create payout segments, your contest must include at least 4 tournaments.
“I’ll Collect Entries and Handle Payouts on My Own”
Selecting this option allows you to:
• Track cuts and FedEx points
• Export leaderboard data
• Make edits after the contest begins (such as removing tournaments or deleting segments)
Note: This converts the contest into a self-managed structure.
Contest Size
Select your projected contest size.
If you do not reach that number, your contest will automatically size down.
Step 4: Contest Details
General Settings
Chat
Toggle on or off to allow in-contest messaging between entrants.
Step 5: Advanced Settings
These settings allow customization of gameplay.
Players Picked Per Tournament
Select:
• 1 player (traditional One & Done)
• Up to 5 players per tournament

• 1 time

Tournament Multipliers
You may adjust scoring weight per tournament.

• 3x multiplier for Tour Championship
Multipliers increase that event’s impact on total standings.
Alternate Picks
If enabled:
Entrants must select a backup golfer.
If the primary golfer does not play, the alternate will automatically replace them.
This helps prevent missed earnings due to withdrawals or non-starts.
Automatic Picks (Autopicks)
If enabled:
• Entrants can set autopick logic
• If they miss a deadline, a golfer will be automatically selected for them
You may allow:
• Unlimited autopicks
• 1–5 autopicks total
Entrants may adjust their autopick preferences at any time before deadlines.
How Winners Are Determined
At the conclusion of all selected tournaments:
• Official PGA earnings are totaled
• The entrant with the highest cumulative dollar winnings wins
• If payout segments are enabled, segment winners are paid accordingly
Splash distributes all payouts automatically once scoring is finalized.
