GOLF RULES

Date/Site Changes

In the event of a tournament being postponed, rearranged or moved to a different course, all bets will stand.

Minimum Length of Play

In the event of a tournament being shortened or otherwise affected due to weather conditions, all bets other than those placed after the last completed round will stand provided at least 36 holes or all originally scheduled holes have been played and a trophy has been awarded. Those placed after the last completed round will be refunded. This does not apply when a tournament is played over more than one course and in this instance all players must have played the same rotation, otherwise all bets will be refunded.

Golf Wagers

All winning bets will be settled at the prices shown at the time the bet was accepted. Bets will be settled at the place terms on offer when the bet was placed.

Hole Winner Markets:

Winning bets must predict which of the quoted players will win the hole. In 3-way player markets, dead heat rules apply. In 2-way player markets, the tie will also be offered, and this will win if they both score the same score on the hole. If a player withdraws on a hole, the other player(s) will be deemed the winner regardless of their score on the hole but provided they complete the hole.

Make/Miss the cut:

Bets will be refunded for any player who does not start the tournament. If a player withdraws at any stage after starting the tournament, bets will be settled as losers.

Match play:

Winning bets must predict the winner of a match play match. In team events, final day singles will be settled on the official result. In a match play tournament, the winner will be the player progressing to the next round or becoming the tournament winner.

Match play Winning Margin:

Winning bets must predict the winning margin in the relevant match play event. The official result counts for settlement purposes.
Mythical 2/3 Balls: The winner will be the player who shoots the lowest score in the specified round. If all players do not start the round, bets will be refunded. If a player withdraws or is disqualified during the specified round, the other player will be deemed the winner. If all players withdraw or are disqualified during the specified round then bets will be refunded.

Player Hole Scores:

Winning bets must predict the number of shots it takes for a player to complete a specified hole. Prices are for a player to achieve a certain score such as Birdie, Bogey, Albatross, Eagle etc. on a particular hole, e.g. First Hole bets will be settled on the score of the first hole of the course (flag number 1). For example, if Tiger Woods teed off on Hole 10 to start his round the bet would not be settled on Tiger Woods first hole played it would be when Tiger Woods finishes playing the first hole on the course (flag number 1). If a player fails to complete a hole for whatever reason, bets will stand provided that the hole is completed on a subsequent day. If there is no opportunity to complete the hole, all bets will be refunded. If a player withdraws whilst playing the specified hole, all bets will be refunded.

Round Leader Markets:

Bets will be settled after the specific round has been completed. Dead heat rules apply.

Tournament Prices:

Winning bets must predict the winner of the tournament. If a playoff is required to determine the tournament winner, the winner of the playoff will be deemed the tournament winner. In the event of a shared win, the operator reserves the right to settle as they see fit based on all available evidence. Dead heat rules apply for all placings in a tournament.

Tournament Group Betting:

Winning bets must select the player who achieves the highest tournament placing from a selected group. In the event of any player in the group not teeing off, bets will be refunded. Players missing the cut will be eliminated unless all of the players in the group miss the cut. If this occurs the lowest score at that stage will determine the winner. Dead heat rules apply if two or more players are tied at the end of the tournament, unless the result is determined by a playoff in which case the playoff winner is considered the group winner.

Tournament Match Bets:

Winning bets must select the player with the lowest score at the end of the tournament, provided that 36 holes have been played in a 72-hole tournament. If both players finish on the same score, 'Tie' is the winner, regardless of whether the two players involved subsequently contest a playoff. Both players in a match bet must tee off for bets to stand. In a tournament played on a combination of courses, all bets will be refunded if the players do not complete the same itinerary of courses. If one player misses the cut, the other player will be deemed to be the winner. Where both miss the cut, the player with the lowest score after the cut has been made is deemed the winner. If one player is disqualified or withdraws before the cut is made or after both players have made the cut, the other player will be deemed the winner (even if the other player does not make the cut). If a player is disqualified or withdraws in the rounds after the cut, when his/her opponent has already missed the cut, the disqualified player will be deemed the winner. If both players withdraw or are disqualified before the cut, all bets are refunded. The same applies if this happens to them both after they have made the cut.

To hit the fairway:

This market is settled on the finishing position of the golf ball after the tee shot. Official sources will be used for settlement. If no official result can be determined via these sources or TV pictures, bets will be refunded.

To Finish Last:

Winning bets will predict who will finish last in the tournament. Any bets placed on players who withdraw before all scheduled holes are completed will be settled as losing bets. If there is a tie for last place, dead heat rules will apply.

Top 5/10/20:

Bets will be refunded on any player that does not start a tournament. If a player starts and then withdraws for any reason, bets will be losers. 

Top Nationality Markets:

All bets stand if a player not listed is deemed the winner. Player(s) may be added as selection(s) at any time. All bets are cancelled if less than three participants of the applicable Nationality participate in the event.

Yearly Order of Merit/Official Money List Winner:

Winning bets must predict the winner of the Order of Merit/Official Money List at the end of the season. Settlement is determined following the last counting tournament and will not be affected by any subsequent enquiries or alterations.

18-Hole/36-Hole Match Bets:

Winning bets must predict the player with the lowest score over 18/36 holes. If both players finish on the same score, 'Tie' will be the winner, regardless of whether the two players involved subsequently contest a playoff. Both players in a match bet must tee-off for bets to stand.

2-Ball/3-Ball Betting:

Winning bets must select the player with the lowest score over the specified number of holes. In the event of any player not teeing off, all bets will be refunded. Once a player has teed off, all bets will stand regardless of whether they subsequently withdraw or are disqualified from the tournament. If a price is offered for the 'Tie' in 2-ball betting, a tied score will result in 'Tie' being declared the winner. If a price is not offered for the 'Tie', all bets will be refunded. Bets will normally be offered based on player pairings or groups in the tournament. In the event of a 2 or 3 ball being rearranged, bets will be settled on the original pairings. Dead Heat rules apply to all 3-ball betting.

Bogey Free Round.

Bets will be losers if the player scores a bogey or worse on any hole.

Golf Futures

We will void and refund any future wager on a specific player if that player withdraws before the start of the event. Once a player tees off on the first hole all future wagers on that specific player will stand.
