This event group covers prediction markets for the winner of the 2026 Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard, a PGA Tour golf tournament. Polymarket offers individual binary markets for 99 listed players plus an 'Other' catchall, while Kalshi offers a single market that resolves Yes if any of 73 named players wins the tournament.
Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)
Both platforms use identical resolution logic anchored to official PGA Tour results, with consistent handling of ties, unlisted winners, and deadline expiration.
Primary resolution logic:
PGA Tour official tournament results published at pgatour.com
Core resolution logic:
Resolution is determined by the official winner as declared by PGA Tour official tournament rules
In case of a tie, the market resolves to the official PGA Tour-designated winner
If multiple winners are announced, the player whose last name comes first alphabetically is selected
If a listed player is eliminated from contention based on official tournament rules, that player's market resolves to No
If an unlisted player wins, Polymarket resolves to Other and Kalshi resolves to No
If no winner is announced by March 14, 2026 at 8:00 PM ET, Polymarket resolves to Other and Kalshi resolves to No
Edge cases & Clarifications:
Tie Resolution: If multiple players finish with identical scores, the official PGA Tour-designated winner is used. If PGA Tour designates multiple winners, the player whose last name comes first alphabetically wins.
Unlisted Player Victory: If a player not listed on either platform wins the tournament, Polymarket resolves to Other and Kalshi resolves to No.
Player Elimination: If a listed player is eliminated from contention per official tournament rules, their individual Polymarket market immediately resolves to No.
Deadline Expiration: If no winner is officially announced by March 14, 2026 at 8:00 PM ET, Polymarket resolves to Other and Kalshi resolves to No.
Player Roster Discrepancy: Polymarket lists 99 players (including placeholder entries like Player 0, Player 1, etc.) while Kalshi lists 73 named players. Both platforms cover the same core set of professional golfers, with Polymarket offering broader coverage including speculative slots.
Timing:
Resolution occurs immediately upon official PGA Tour announcement of the tournament winner. If no winner is announced by March 14, 2026 at 8:00 PM ET, markets resolve to Other (Polymarket) or No (Kalshi).
