Run your own Ryder Cup
Every great buddies trip is secretly a Ryder Cup: Saturday scramble, Sunday four-ball, Sunday singles, points for every match, a cup at the end. Swilkin runs the whole thing — the teams, the slates, the live match status, and the cup score everyone argues about at dinner.

Make the event & add the rounds
Create a tournament, add a round for each session — the Saturday scramble, Sunday morning four-ball, Sunday singles. Each round keeps its own format; the cup rides on top of all of them.

Draft the teams & name the captains
One tap splits the crew into two handicap-balanced teams — then rename them, move anyone across, and crown a captain per side. The C badge matters more than it should. That’s the point.

Pair the matches each night
Captains set the slate per round — singles or pairs, worth whatever points you like (double the Sunday singles if you want the fireworks). Sitting someone out is just leaving them off the slate.

Watch the cup fill in
Matches close out the real way — 3&2 is 3&2 — and every result rolls into the cup score in golf-speak. The event page leads with the board: score up top, every match with live status underneath.

Put it on the TV
Cast the event’s big-screen board at the house — the cup slate rotates in full-screen with the score across the top, filling in red and blue as the matches land.

And the bets underneath
Nassau with presses in your foursome, a trip-long skins pot, dollar dots — all riding on the same scorecards, all settled to the penny at the end with one-tap Venmo, PayPal or Cash App.
