If you're looking for a way to make every round of golf more competitive, exciting and memorable, Chip n Win is the perfect addition to your golf bag.
Whether you're playing a casual weekend round with friends, competing in a golf society, or heading away on a golf trip, Chip n Win adds another layer of competition without changing the game you already love.
It's quick to learn, easy to play, and suitable for golfers of every ability.
Here's everything you need to know before your next round.
How To Play Chip n Win
Chip n Win is played alongside your normal round of golf.
Throughout the round, players earn chips by completing the challenge shown on each chip. For example, if you make a birdie, you earn the Birdie chip. If you three-putt, you take the Three Putts chip.
The twist is that there is only one of each chip.
If another player completes the same challenge later in the round, you must hand that chip over to them. For example, if you earn the Birdie chip on the 4th hole and another player makes a birdie on the 9th, they take the Birdie chip from you.
This means the chips are constantly changing hands throughout the round, keeping everyone in the game until the very last hole.
At the end of the round, count your chips:
- Each green chip is worth +1 point
- Each red chip is worth -1 point
Add up your total score, and the player with the highest score wins.
Every shot could win you a chip—or lose you one
