Golf Tournament History: PGA, LPGA, DP World & LIV Results

Golf Tournament History returns recent tournament results for the golfers you name, with one row per golfer and tournament, newest first. Use it to compare form, finishes, scores to par and cut records across the tours covered by ESPN's golf data.

What does Golf Tournament History do?

Golf Tournament History resolves each name against ESPN's golf data and returns finishing position, score to par, total strokes, round-by-round scores and cut status where the source provides them.

• Type names in plain text (Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Nelly Korda); no IDs needed.
• Get recent form in one call: the newest tournaments first, across seasons when needed.
• Ask for many names in one run and get one combined table.
• Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or connect the Actor to an AI workflow through Apify integrations or an MCP client.

How much will Golf Tournament History cost?

Golf Tournament History uses pay-per-event pricing. At current Free-tier rates, the default 4 GB run-start charge is about $0.004, plus $0.001 per returned tournament; 10 rows therefore cost about $0.014. Your plan tier and Apify's current rates may change the total. Check the Pricing tab and request only the rows you need.

Limitations

• Coverage follows ESPN's golf data: PGA TOUR, LPGA, DP World Tour and LIV Golf events. Hole-by-hole data is not included.
• Data comes from ESPN's public sports data, so coverage and update timing follow that source and may lag the end of an event.
• Only completed tournaments are returned; scheduled ones are skipped.

Troubleshooting

• No rows returned: check the spelling or use an ESPN URL or ID. Some names are not present in ESPN's database, and upcoming tournaments are not included.
• Fewer rows than requested: the source may have fewer completed results for that name, season or competition.
• Some names failed: successful names are still returned. Check the RUN_SUMMARY key-value record for the per-name errors and retry only those names.
• Rows are missing from your existing dataset: confirm the datasetId belongs to a dataset you can write to. The run's default dataset is still populated separately.
