TOURNAMENT RULES

Player must have an official USGA or recognized golf association handicap to participate in a flight other than the first flight. The first flight will be for the most skilled players, most with a low single digit handicap. For players living in winter climates, final 2007 handicaps should be provided for all players. For those players living in year round golf climates, the February 2008 handicap revision will be used.
Fighting is defined as sub-dividing the players into smaller groups, each with handicaps in a close range (example – 9 to 12 Handicaps make up Flight X).
Once flighted, players will compete on an individual stroke play basis for 54 holes. Handicap strokes will NOT apply to the “gross” score generated by each player, for each 18-hole round (round 1 + round 2 + round 3 = 54 hole tournament score). This format reduces the chance of inflated handicaps being used to gain an unfair advantage. Winners will be recognized in each flight. The exact number of flights will be determined by the Tournament Committee based on the total number of players and their handicap variances. If there are not enough ladies entered or their handicaps are too diverse based on the total number participating, ladies will compete from within each flight on a gross basis – playing from forward tees.
All tournament rounds will be governed by USGA rules and any local rules will be communicated in prior to the start of each round as determined by each host course and the Tournament Committee. All format, scoring and rules decisions will be made by the Tournament Committee, and all such decisions will be final.
Players will be asked to exchange cards at the start of each round, and be responsible for scoring and governing each other’s round. In any circumstance of doubt, players will be allowed to invoke the “2 ball rule”, scoring each ball and then presenting the players’ case to the Tournament Committee at the conclusion of the round. Tournament staff will be circulating throughout the course for assistance as well.
Handicaps must be verified by USGA, GHIN or other certified golf association. USGA or GHIN numbers must be submitted online. If you do not belong to a certified golf association, club print outs and/or scorecard histories must be signed by the team pro and submitted to the tournament committee. Failure to produce proper documentation will result in disqualification from the Event. The Event tournament committee reserves all right to review and adjust individual handicaps as necessary or change the daily formats prior to the start of competition.
