Year of the Rabbit Showdown



Celebrate Lunar New Year, compete against players around the world, and win prizes in this special event!

First time playing in a Showdown? We’ve got you covered with everything you need to know.

Qualifying Round

  • The qualifying round lasts three days
  • Players have a daily chance each day of the qualifying round to secure their spot in the elimination round
  • The top 50% of the qualifying round leaderboard advance to the elimination round
  • Players that qualify on day one (top 50%) do not need to play on day two or three of the qualifying round
  • Players that do not qualify on day one are still eligible to compete on days two or three to secure an elimination round spot


Elimination Round

  • The elimination round lasts two days
  • Players only get one chance to grab a spot in the final round, unlike the qualifying round
  • The top 50% of the elimination round leaderboard advance to the final round


Final Round

  • The final round also lasts two days
  • If you’ve made it this far, you’ll receive a prize no matter what, but the higher you rank, the bigger the prizes


Other Things to Know

  • We base scoring on total strokes, meaning the fewer shots you take to complete your matches, the higher you rank on the leaderboard
  • Incomplete or forfeited holes score as bogeys
