How CircleOne Works

A balanced system that rewards both steady play and highlight-reel moments.

πŸ… Points Breakdown

We’ll revisit these weights as the season progresses to keep things fair.

βš–οΈ Why It Works

  • Core vs. Highlights
    Winners still earn big via birdies and eagles, but a few highlight plays can let a β€œflashy” round top the charts.

  • Risk & Reward
    A bogey (–2) costs half a birdie (+4). Two OBs (–8) wipe out most of a birdie spreeβ€”so reckless play carries real risk.

  • Skill Diversity
    Approach (C1/C2), recovery (scramble), and putting (C1X/C2) each have their own rewards.
    A balanced fantasy roster needs drivers, scramblers, and putters.
