## What is Golf Nerd Leagues?

Golf Nerd Leagues is fantasy golf the way it should be — built by golf nerds, for golf nerds. Draft with your friends, pick your golfer each week, and follow every round on live leaderboards that actually keep up with the action.

PLAY EVERY WEEK & TRACK YOUR STATS
Pick — free weekly game. Back one golfer in the field and climb the board.
Draft — snake-draft a roster for any PGA Tour week with up to 8 friends. Standard scoring or winner-take-tier Skins

PLAY FOR THE WHOLE SEASON
Season — draft 10 golfers and score every tournament all season long.
One & Done — one golfer per week, each only once all year. The classic pool, minus the spreadsheet.
Fantasy — the full league experience: weekly lineups, trades, waivers, and a commissioner with real power.

A DAILY HOME FOR GOLF
Keep your streak alive with quick daily games — golf trivia, head-to-head player matchups, and Make the Cut. Earn GNerds, climb the tiers, and build a real handicap based on how well you actually pick.

BUILT FOR YOUR GROUP
Start a private league and invite your crew with one link, or jump into public leagues and play against the field. Live scoring, weekly results, standings, and season-long bragging rights — all in one place.

THE DETAILS
Live Draft functionality for each league type (Just like your Football or Baseball Fantasy Drafts... all in the app!)
Live leaderboards through every round
Standings update every Sunday night
GNerds are a virtual currency earned by playing — they can't be cashed out
GNL Handicap measures your performance across all Golf Nerd Leagues Games throughout the year
NEW: GNL Trips - Manage your buddies trip directly from the app. 

Contests are games of skill. Apple is not a sponsor of, or involved in, any contest or sweepstakes.

Grab your phone, gather your group, and settle who the real golf nerd is.

### 5/5 — Best golf app out there right now!

*2026-10-10*

I’m someone who is just dipping their toe into the world of fantasy golf.  This app is beautifully and intuitively designed, made me feel comfortable understanding how fantasy golf works and kept me coming back.  Then I went on a golf trip with friends and used this to plan out our trip and love hole by hole scoring (we had four foursomes) and I was totally blown away! A great download for a casual golf fan like me and a must download for the real golf lovers!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.10 — 2026-10-10

Built for this weekend's golf trips.

- New trip format: Sixes — three 6-hole net best-ball matches each round with partners rotating, plus an individual leaderboard with Matches, Net and Gross views.
- Scoring keeps the six-hole match you're playing front and centre, with the other two underneath and each result on its own line.
- A cleaner Live Activity for six-hole matches: the hole you're on, the score from your side, and all three results at a glance.
- Clearer back buttons in trips, plus colour and scorecard fixes.

### 2.0.9 — 2026-10-09

Golf trips, all in the app:
- Set up a whole trip on your phone — the group, teams and captains, players, courses, rounds and how matches are made — then share one invite link.
- Captains' draft: name a captain for each team, start the draft when you're ready, and the captains pick the matchups tee time by tee time on their phones.
- Handicaps your way, round by round: full handicaps, off the best player in the match, or off the best player on the trip.
- New formats: alternate shot and shamble.
- "Just play" trips: tee times, stats and a gross and net leaderboard, no teams needed.
- Join a trip from its invite link: pick your name and you're in.
- The Commissioner Console is organized by moment: Home, Setup, Rounds, Live, Wrap and Settings.
- Once every round is in, Today shows the trip's final summary.
- The scorecard adds OUT and IN totals like a paper card, and turns sideways to show the whole card.
- A cleaner tee-time card: your whole group, the format, the course and the day's weather.
- Every hole you enter is saved on your phone first and sent when the signal allows.
- Your group's logo on the scoreboard.

Fantasy: the waiver and add sheet shows each golfer's season points and world ranking.

Plus fixes: the picked golfer's chip stays on one line at larger text sizes, Today's order on a tournament day, and a tidier Leaderboard.

### 2.0.7 — 2026-10-01

Two fixes before the trip weekend.

- The scorecard is back before the round starts: each player's handicap, tees and the holes where they get a stroke — handy for marking the paper card. Tap a tee time to see that group's card.
- The Daily Round opens by itself the first time you open Today each day, even when the app was already running in the background.

Plus small fixes.

### 2.0.6 — 2026-09-28

The forecast, the projection, and a Stats tab worth opening.

Weather on the trip: the forecast at your tee time on Today, and every trip day's high, low and rain chance on the Schedule — so you know what to pack before you leave.
Projected score: a race-to-the-target bar under the team score on Today and the Leaderboard shows where the trip is heading while matches are still out, and each round card carries its projected score.
Stats in three tabs: Leaders (low gross and net, averages, most birdies, pars and eagles, the courses), My rounds, and By player — sortable, with a ranking sheet behind every tile.
Scan a scorecard with more confidence: confirm which group before the camera opens, a Use Photo / Retake step after the shutter, a longer wait for hard cards, and scanning now works on the Scramble for Birdies too. The commissioner can remove an archived card photo.
Screens keep themselves current: every trip screen refreshes when it appears, and the Leaderboard moves as scores come in during a live round — no pull needed.
Lock Screen: a decided match wears the winning team's colour, and the Scramble for Birdies gets its own Live Activity with the team tally.
A save that landed never says it didn't: the app checks the server before it tells you a hole failed, and retries with one tap if it really did.
Notifications on the Account screen: choose which push and email you get, one switch each.
Fixes: course names no longer cut off, the Mr. Onions board reads "Stableford", the head-to-head circles on Presidents Cup week read USA and INT.

Plus small fixes from three more weekends of live testing.

### 2.0.5 — 2026-09-22

Live scoring for golf trips, built on the course with you.

Score your group hole by hole and watch every match move on Today and the Leaderboard as the cards come in.
Hole Flow — the story of each match, one dot per hole, under every result.
Your tee time on Today: when, where and who you're with — then the live card the moment the round starts.
Every format scored its own way: best ball and singles as matches, scrambles as one ball per side, team Stableford as a running score, and the Scramble for Birdies as one ball per group.
Two phones on one hole? The app flags the difference and lets you keep or replace — no silent overwrites.
Your card is in the moment the last hole saves; the commissioner closes the round for everyone when the last group is off the course.
A Lock Screen Live Activity starts on its own at your tee time, follows your match, and freezes on the final score when the round closes. Also in the Dynamic Island and on CarPlay.
Schedule, Leaderboard and Stats share one look: one match block everywhere, cleaner tee sheets, past items fade as the day moves on, and a tap on any player in Stats opens their rounds.
One & Done: the pick sheet is rebuilt for the phone — no more cramped columns.
Daily Round: the head-to-head step now opens on match-play weeks (Ryder Cup, Presidents Cup) just like any other day.
Home Screen widget shows the golfer's full name and whether today's round is complete.
Fixes: tapping a streak reminder opens the app cleanly, and the Fantasy screens lose their explanatory footers — the numbers speak.

Plus dozens of small fixes from two weekends of live testing.
