Golf games for your group — every format, one live card

Pick the format. Keep the round social.

Different days call for different games. Rounds is built for the group round — live scoring, friends following from home, and peer-to-peer challenges when the format gets spicy. Not a rangefinder. Not a sportsbook.

Deep rules pages for every game

Each format below has its own guide: how the rules work, where groups argue, a worked example, and how to run it with live scoring in Rounds. Start here, then open the format you need.

Score it live. Bet if you want.

Whatever format you pick, the card stays honest hole by hole. Layer side bets and challenges when the trash talk starts — then settle in-app when 18 is done.

Formats you can run in Rounds

Wolf

The rotation game where someone’s the Wolf and teams shift hole by hole. Partner picks, lone wolf, and pots — keep the live card honest so the rotation doesn’t turn into a rules committee.

Rules, examples & how to play

Skins

Lowest score wins the hole; ties carry. The classic pot game — brutal after a string of halves, clean when winners and carryovers live on the card.

Rules, examples & how to play

Nassau

Front nine, back nine, and overall — plus presses. Three bets in one, powered by live front/back/total scoring.

Rules, examples & how to play

Stableford

Points for how you score relative to par — reward birdies, limit the damage of a blow-up hole. Track the round live so points stay clear through 18.

Rules, examples & how to play

Scramble

Team golf: hit it, pick the best ball, hit again. Great for charity days and mixed groups. Score the team round together on one live card.

Rules, examples & how to play

Best ball

Each player plays their own ball; the team takes the best score on each hole. Live scorekeeping keeps the team number obvious.

Rules, examples & how to play

Match play

Hole by hole, win / lose / halve — not total strokes. Track the match live so dormie, presses, and side action stay honest.

Rules, examples & how to play

Vegas

Two teams pair scores into two-digit numbers each hole — a 4 and 5 becomes 45. Point swings and birdie flips get spicy fast.

Rules, examples & how to play

Sunningdale

Match play without handicaps: go two down, get a stroke; stay in the fight through 18. Live scoring keeps the match state honest.
