## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability espn-pga-tour-tournament-leaderboard-5e16d905
```

Example prompt: Pull up the PGA Tour leaderboard from yesterday and show me the top 5 players with their scores to par.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick, structured PGA Tour leaderboard data for a specific date without building ESPN API integration yourself. It is ideal for agents monitoring golf standings, building sports recap summaries, or answering ad hoc questions about who is leading a PGA Tour event. It handles both individual stroke-play and team (pairs) formats automatically.

## Known failure modes

- No PGA Tour event scheduled for the requested date returns an empty events array
- Invalid date format returns a validation error
- The ESPN source API being unavailable causes a fetch failure
- Requesting top N outside the 1-20 range may return a default or error
- Future dates with no scheduled events return empty or partial data

## How this service works

ESPN PGA Tour tournament leaderboard for one date: tournament name, state and the top players or teams with their total score to par and position order, from ESPN's public site JSON. Team events (pairs) are listed as teams.

## Output

A JSON object containing the date queried, count of events, and an array of events each with tournament name, state (pre/in/post), entry count, start time, and a leaders array of players or teams showing position, name, and score to par (e.g. '-30'). Team events list pairs as a single entry.
