##### 2026-09-30

*Changes*

- The box score line is gone from the price list; ESPN has no box score for golf tournaments.

*Fixes*

- A player at even par now gets `standingScore` 0; it used to be empty because ESPN writes even par as `E`.
- Before a tournament starts, `standingScore` is empty for every player; ESPN lists the whole field at even par until play begins.
- **Finished** keeps only tournaments whose `statusDetail` is `Final`. Leaderboards between two rounds, which ESPN already marks as `post`, used to pass the filter.
- The **What to return** list shows only leaderboards and news, the two things ESPN has for golf. The box score, betting line, team and season options, which never applied to golf, are gone from the form.
- The change mode returns a player when the position, the score to par or a round score changes. It used to follow only the tournament's status text, so moves inside a round never counted.
- In the change mode, a run stopped by **Maximum rows** keeps the players it did not return for the next run. The first of them used to be marked as seen and never returned, and tours the run did not reach came back as new.

##### 2026-09-27

*Changes*

- The snapshot name for the changes-only mode is now the `watchName` field. Inputs that still use `watchKey` work as before.

##### 2026-09-24

*Changes*

- Lower price per row on every plan.

##### 2026-09-23

*Features*

- **From date** and **To date** also take moving dates (`today`, `yesterday`, `+7`, `-3`), so a scheduled task follows the current tournament week.

##### 2026-09-21

*Features*

- First public version: PGA Tour and LPGA leaderboards from ESPN with one row per player (position, score to par, strokes per round, country), golf news, date ranges and a mode that returns only rows whose status changed since the last run.
