The minimum odds for this tournament are 150/1, please ensure your selections add up to this or you will be asked to change your picks.
After our incredible £10,900 prize pot for The Masters LMS, it’s time for the PGA Championship!
The tournament starts next Thursday 18th May 2023, Justin Thomas took home the trophy last year after an incredible comeback and won on the play off.
Last year we managed 328 entries (before withdrawals, 323 after withdrawals) for the PGA Championship, which saw Tom Murphy take home the £3,000 prize pot.
We usually say that we’re aiming for more entries than the previous tournament however beating 1,200 entries will be hard! We think we should be able to get 650+ though which would mean a £6,000 prize pot, so not bad off a tenner!

How Last Man Standing Works
There will be a payout for the top 3 places and the prize pot will be split as follows
1st – 75%
2nd – 20%
3rd – 5%
Pick 3 golfers from our PGA Championship – Golfers & Odds page with combined odds of 150/1+ (must be from this list – the odds have been taken from Bet365 on 10/05/2023):
E.g. Seve Ballesteros 15/1
Arnold Palmer 40/1
Willie Mullins 100/1
The lowest combined score wins i.e. if all 3 golfers finish on -10 your overall score would be -30. However if one of your golfers misses the cut, you’re out! Almost 70% of the entries missed the cut in the 2023 The Masters LMS!
If the scores are tied at the end of Round 4, it will then be based on your lowest individual golfer.
E.g. if my golfers had the score -30 (-10, -10, -10) and Joe Bloggs had -30 (-15, -10, -5), Joe Bloggs would win as -15 would beat -10.
If both have the same lowest individual scorer, it would go to the 2nd lowest golfers etc.
Obviously if all 3 golfers have the same score, the pot will be split. We have only had three split pots since starting Last Man Standing in 2018. These were at The Players Championship in 2022 and 2023, in addition to our most recent LMS where we had a 5 way split!
If, for example, 3 people all finish tied in 1st place, the entire prize pot will be split equally between them i.e. 1st, 2nd and 3rd (100% of the prize pot) similarly to how ties in the actual competitions works.

Late Withdrawal Replacement
If this box is ticked, a late withdrawal before tee off will be automatically swapped to another golfer with the same odds. In the unlikely event that there is no other golfer on the same odds, it will roll onto the next golfer on the list e.g. if your golfer is 12/1 it will roll onto 14/1. If this box isn’t ticked, and one of your golfers is withdrawn prior to teeing off, you will get your money back.
Regardless of whether the box is ticked or not, if one of your golfers withdraws after teeing off, you’re out with no refund.
