Fetch the Schedule

The schedule for a PGA Tour season is obtainable from the /schedules endpoint. Each entry in the schedule array contains metadata about a given tournament. The most important field in this object is the tournId field, which is used to query almost every other endpoint.

Fetch the Leaderboard

The leaderboard for a specific tournament is obtainable from the /leaderboards endpoint. Each tournament has 1 leaderboard entry for each round of a tournament for a given year. A leaderboard is queryable using tournId obtained from the /schedules endpoint along with the year for that tournId.

To fetch the leaderboard for a specific round, you can include the optional roundId parameter in the api call. If not included, the most up-to-date leaderboard for that tournament will be returned.

Fetch the Tournament Entry List

In order to query for live scorecard data, a playerId parameter must be included in the query along with the tournament's tournId and year. Entry list, along with other pertinent metadata, such as location and course information, can be fetched from the /tournaments endpoint. The entry list can be found under the players array in the endpoint's response. A player's status can also be found in each entry of the array, which will have values active, cut, or wd.

Note that a tournament's entry list is finalized by the PGA Tour some time after 5 pm ET the Friday before the event

Fetch Player's Scorecard

The player's scorecard for a given year's tournament can be fetched from the /scorecards endpoint. The tournId, year, and playerId are all required parameters. To query only a single round for the given player, include the roundId parameter. If no roundId is included, an array of all the player's scorecards will be returned.

Fetch FedExCup Points

A tournament's FedExCup points can be fetched from the /points endpoint by providing the tournament's tournId and year parameters.

Note that non-PGA Tour players will not be accounted for in this leaderboard.

Fetch Earnings

A tournament's earnings can be fetched from the /earnings endpoint by providing the tournament's tournId and year parameters. The leaderboard array has an object for each player on the leaderboard who earned a paycheck from the event. The earnings are populated usually a few hours after the tournament has ended.
