Golf Tiers Pools
Fantasy Golf Pools with Live Leaderboards
Golf Tiers is a fantasy-style golf pool format built for PGA Tour events and major championships. These pools are used for country club contests, offices, friend groups, and tournament watch parties. Pick golfers from different tiers, follow live scoring, and track standings throughout the event.
What is a Golf Tiers pool?
A Golf Tiers pool lets participants build a team by selecting golfers from multiple tiers. Instead of everyone simply picking the top favorites, the tiered format creates balanced teams, strategy, and leaderboard movement throughout the tournament.
Live tournament standings
Follow team scores, golfer performance, leaderboard movement, and standings as the tournament unfolds.
No app required
