ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for playing a golf sweepstakes game. Players seek to win the sweepstakes game by correctly predicting a portion of the outcome of a golf tournament. The players are provided with an access number. A code system allows the players to convert their selection of golfers into numbers which are inputted into a computer system along with the access numbers. The results of the golf tournament are also inputted into the computer system and the computer system determines the winner of the sweepstakes in accordance with a predetermined set of rules. Preferred rules call for the sweepstakes winner also to correctly predict a number (such as eight) of the tournament's runners up.
