Repair Golf Tournament Excel Organizer

Job ID: 40601611

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

I already have an Excel file that ChatGPT drafted for my charity golf tournament, but the logic is glitchy. In the “Raw Data” sheet I want to type a player’s name, pick a group number from a drop-down, and have the workbook instantly sort and store that entry. Over on the “Organized Groups” sheet each foursome (Group 1, Group 2, etc.) should update automatically so I can print tidy group lists without manual copying or filtering.

Right now the formulas/tables aren’t syncing; some names land in the wrong place or stay blank altogether. Please clean up the data-validation list, fix or rebuild the lookup/sorting mechanism—whether that’s with structured tables, INDEX-MATCH, FILTER, SORT, a PivotTable, or a light VBA routine—and be sure everything recalculates as soon as a new row is added. The file needs to stay user-friendly so tournament volunteers can type, select, and immediately see the organized result.

Deliverable: a working .xlsx (macro-free or with clearly commented VBA if you choose that route) where entering “Jane Doe – Group 4” in Raw Data instantly places Jane under Group 4 on Organized Groups. I’ll test it with a dozen sample names; every one should appear in the correct slot without extra clicks.
