Gross or net. Every players scores from their own phone and the match updates live for the whole group. Players without the app join as guests. When the round ends, Wedge nets out who owes whom and keeps a ledger of what is still owed. TOURNAMENTS Built for the golf trip and the club event. Set up a multi-day tournament with a buy-in, teams, legs and tee times, then invite players with a link. Wedge scores a Ryder Cup between two teams (singles, four-ball and alternate shot), an overall stroke-play leaderboard, and side games such as skins, Stableford, quota, low net, low gross and most birdies, live as scores come in. Buy-ins and payouts are tracked alongside the standings. GHIN HANDICAP Link your GHIN account once. Wedge imports your Handicap Index and posting history, applies course handicaps to every match and tournament, and posts rounds hole by hole to GHIN from the app. Your index syncs back automatically.
