Eighteen friends. Four days. Some of the best links golf in North America.
The Scratchers Cup is an annual golf trip for a tight group of friends who make the pilgrimage to Bandon Dunes each spring. It's part tournament, part reunion, part excuse to play some of the best links golf on the planet.
Founded in 2021 by Marc Sitterud and Jenner Wilson, the Cup has grown into a full-fledged multi-day competition — complete with a live team draft, multiple formats, individual match play, and real cash on the line.
The field spans everything from scratch golfers to honest 16-handicaps who swing hard and hope for the best. Every player carries their official handicap. Every match is contested. No gimmes except the ones we agree on at the first tee.
No sponsors. No pros. No nonsense.
$125 entry fee payable to Jenner at the draft. Bring $200 cash.
