## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## PGA Tour Golf Data Scraper

Scrape PGA Tour tournament schedules, live leaderboards, and comprehensive player statistics directly from the official PGA Tour GraphQL API.

### Features

- **Tournament Schedule** - Full season calendar with dates, venues, purses, and champions
- **Live Leaderboards** - Real-time scores, positions, round-by-round results for any tournament
- **Player Statistics** - Detailed stat rankings (driving distance, scoring average, strokes gained, putting, and more)
- **Multiple Tours** - PGA Tour (R), Champions Tour (H), Korn Ferry Tour (S)

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `mode` | string | `schedule`, `leaderboard`, or `player-stats` |
| `tournamentId` | string | Tournament ID for leaderboard mode (e.g. `R2026006`) |
| `season` | string | Season year (e.g. `2026`). Defaults to current year |
| `statId` | string | Stat ID for detailed rankings (e.g. `101` for Driving Distance) |
| `statCategory` | string | Stat category filter: `OFF_TEE`, `PUTTING`, `SCORING`, `STROKES_GAINED`, etc. |
| `tourCode` | string | `R` (PGA Tour), `H` (Champions), `S` (Korn Ferry) |
| `limit` | integer | Max results. 0 = no limit |

### Usage Examples

#### Get 2026 PGA Tour schedule
```json
{
    "mode": "schedule",
    "season": "2026",
    "tourCode": "R"
}
````

#### Get leaderboard for a specific tournament

```json
{
    "mode": "leaderboard",
    "tournamentId": "R2026006"
}
```

#### Get top driving distance players

```json
{
    "mode": "player-stats",
    "statId": "101",
    "season": "2026",
    "limit": 20
}
```

#### Get stat overview (all categories)

```json
{
    "mode": "player-stats",
    "season": "2026"
}
```

#### Get scoring stat leaders

```json
{
    "mode": "player-stats",
    "statCategory": "SCORING",
    "season": "2026"
}
```

### Common Stat IDs

| ID | Stat Name |
|----|-----------|
| `101` | Driving Distance |
| `120` | Scoring Average |
| `156` | Birdie Average |
| `103` | Greens in Regulation % |
| `130` | Scrambling |
| `02675` | Strokes Gained: Total |
| `02568` | Strokes Gained: Approach the Green |
| `02564` | Strokes Gained: Putting |

### Output

Output fields depend on the mode:

**Schedule**: `id`, `tournamentName`, `date`, `city`, `state`, `country`, `courseName`, `purse`, `champion`, `tournamentStatus`

**Leaderboard**: `position`, `playerName`, `total`, `score`, `thru`, `totalStrokes`, `round1`-`round4`, `country`, `playerState`

**Player Stats**: `rank`, `playerName`, `statValue`, `statName`, `country`, `statTitle`

### How It Works

This scraper queries the PGA Tour's official GraphQL API at `orchestrator.pgatour.com/graphql` to retrieve structured golf data. No HTML parsing needed - all data comes directly from the same API that powers pgatour.com.

### Cost

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You are charged $0.005 per result returned.
