Qualifiers
If one or more DraftKings Players tie in a Qualifier, in which the tie determines who wins the “ticket” to the FGWC Contest, there will be a tiebreaker playoff contest between the tied DraftKings Players, to determine the Qualifier Winner. The scheduling of the tiebreaker playoff contest will be solely determined by DraftKings.
If one or more DraftKings Players tie in a Qualifier on or after Thursday, August 18, 2016, in which the tie determines who wins the “ticket” to the FGWC Contest , the winner will be the DraftKings Player with the higher single-player fantasy points result for each drafted player in the lineup. For example, if DraftKings Player A and DraftKings Player B tied in the daily game, and Player A's highest fantasy point scoring player was Jason Day with 138 fantasy points, and Player B's highest fantasy point scoring player was Rickie Fowler with 124 fantasy points, then Player A would be judged the winner. In the event that both teams have the same highest fantasy point scoring player, the same process will proceed down to the next highest fantasy point scoring player in each roster. In the event of two identical rosters, the DraftKings Player who submitted his/her winning team first will be deemed the winner.
MAXIMUM NUMBER OF ENTRIES
Once a Player has accumulated six (6) entries to the FGWC Contest, the Player is no longer allowed to win additional entries into the FGWC Contest from Qualifiers, except for Qualifiers that the Player is already entered in and that are live at the time the six (6) entries into the FGWC Contest were accumulated.
EXAMPLE: Player has four (4) of the maximum six (6) entries permitted under these Contest Rules to the FGWC Contest and enters into four (4) different Qualifiers on Thursday, 7/28. After the conclusion of those Qualifiers, the DraftKings Player is found to have won all four (4) Qualifiers. Under these Contest Rules, Player is awarded eight (8) entries to the FGWC Contest and is allowed to use the eight (8) winning entries, bringing the DraftKings Player's total from four (4) to eight (8) entries to the FGWC Contest. Player is now no longer able to enter additional Qualifiers.
Rounds in the Fantasy Golf World Championship
Round 1
The 125 Qualifiers will compete in round 1 of the FGWC by drafting lineups for The Barclays on August 25th. The top 100 finishers will advance to round 2 of the FGWC. If one or more DraftKings Players tie for the 100th spot, the winner will be the DraftKings Player with the higher single-player fantasy points result for each drafted player in the lineup. For example, if DraftKings Player A and DraftKings Player B tied in the daily game, and Player A's highest fantasy point scoring player was Jason Day with 138 fantasy points, and Player B's highest fantasy point scoring player was Rickie Fowler with 124 fantasy points, then Player A would be judged the winner. In the event that both teams have the same highest fantasy point scoring player, the same process will proceed down to the next highest fantasy point scoring player in each roster. In the event of two identical rosters, the DraftKings Player who qualified for the FGWC first will be deemed the winner. In the event that the DraftKings Players in question also qualified on the same day, the same highest scoring player tiebreaker process will continue from those qualifying entries. If the DraftKings Players in question qualified more than once on that given day, then their highest scoring team will be used to determine the tiebreaker. In the event that the DraftKings Players also had two identical rosters on the day they qualified, then the DraftKings Player who submitted his/her winning team first in round 1 will be deemed the winner.

If one or more DraftKings Players tie for the 70th position AND have the same score of their best single entry from round 1, the winner will be the DraftKings Player with the higher single-player fantasy points result for each drafted player in the lineup from round 2 from the tied lineup in question. For example, if DraftKings Player A and DraftKings Player B tied in the daily game, and Player A's highest fantasy point scoring player was Jason Day with 138 fantasy points, and Player B's highest fantasy point scoring player was Rickie Fowler with 124 fantasy points, then Player A would be judged the winner. In the event that both teams have the same highest fantasy point scoring player, the same process will proceed down to the next highest fantasy point scoring player in each roster. In the event of two identical rosters, the same process will take place for round 1 based on the DraftKings Players’ top scoring team. In the event that both of those rosters are identical, the DraftKings Player who qualified for the FGWC first will be deemed the winner. In the event that both users also qualified for the FGWC on the same day, the same highest scoring player tiebreaker process will continue from those qualifying entries. If the DraftKings Players in question qualified more than once on that given day, then their highest scoring team will be used to determine the tiebreaker. In the event that the DraftKings Players also had two identical rosters on the day they qualified, then the DraftKings Player who submitted his/her winning team first in round 2 will be deemed the winner.

In the event that both teams have the same highest fantasy point scoring player, the same process will proceed down to the next highest fantasy point scoring player in each roster. In the event of two identical rosters in round 3, the same player based tiebreaker process will apply for round 2 based on each DraftKings Player's highest scoring team. In the event of two identical rosters in round 2, the same player based tiebreaker process will apply for round 1 based on each user’s highest scoring team. In the event of identical rosters in all 3 rounds, the DraftKings Player who qualified for the FGWC first will be deemed the winner. In the event that both users also qualified for the FGWC on the same day, the same highest scoring player tiebreaker process will continue from those qualifying entries. If the DraftKings Players in question qualified more than once on that given day, then their highest scoring team will be used to determine the tiebreaker.
