To coincide with the fourth Rolex Series event of the season, fans – both on the course and at home – will select and predict how near players in the featured groups will hit their tee shot to the pin on the par-three 14th over the West Course at Wentworth Club.
After its first implementation at Scotland’s national open, the game returned for last week's Horizon Irish Open and will also be available at the DP World Tour Championship.
How does it work?
For each of the featured groups, fans will select one golfer, the distance to the pin from five-feet brackets or whether they think the player will miss the green.
