How fantasy golf, tennis and F1 work
Updated October 2026
In golf, tennis and F1 you draft the athletes themselves: the golfers, players and drivers in one event’s field. They score by how far they go or where they finish, and the best combined roster wins.
In team sports you draft whole teams. In these three, the thing that can win is one person, so that is who you draft. New to team-based fantasy? Start with what a fantasy team is.
How does fantasy work for individual sports?
One event at a time. Each tournament or race is its own league, so there is no season to keep up with. It ends when the event does.
Pick an event
A tournament or a race weekend. Each one is its own league with its own field.
Pick your athletes
Golfers, tennis players or drivers from that field. Which games are open depends on the event (more below).
Follow it to the finish
Your athletes score by how far they go or where they finish. Standings update on their own, and the best combined roster wins.
