Fantasy Golf Player Selection Strategy
Success in fantasy golf starts with smart player selection. Learn how to build a competitive team while avoiding common pitfalls. New to EyeOnMajors? Start with our Quick Start Guide.
Player Selection Responsibility
As a tournament participant, you must select six active players for your fantasy golf team. While EyeOnMajors.com maintains an up-to-date field list, last-minute withdrawals are common in professional golf.
Important: All six players must make the tournament cut for your team to remain in contention. A withdrawn player counts the same as a missed cut!
Building Your Fantasy Golf Team
Follow these steps to create your winning team:
- Click "Create Team" to begin your fantasy golf entry
- Fill all six player slots with active tournament participants
- Use the search function or browse available players
- Review tournament scoring rules
- Set your tiebreaker score prediction (don't leave it at the default 0)
Finding and Selecting Players
Two efficient ways to build your fantasy golf roster:
- Browse the complete tournament field and click "Add" next to desired players
- Use the real-time search function to quickly find specific golfers by name
Managing Your Fantasy Golf Team
During the pre-tournament period, you have full flexibility to optimize your team:
- Replace withdrawn players before the deadline
- Adjust strategy based on new information or handicap changes
- Fine-tune your winning score prediction
Critical: Once tournament play begins, your team is LOCKED. Ensure your selections are final before the deadline!
