Men’s Individual Match Play

 

 

Entry fee: $50

Registration Deadline: May 3rd

 

 

Format

Individual Match Play similar to the WGC Dell Match Play format

Each group will play round-robin matches within their group of 3 players. The top player with the best record in each group advances to the 2nd round. The 2nd round may be another round robin stage, or we may move to single elimination, depending on the number of players registered. 

 

During group play, players play 18-hole matches against each of the other players in their group. Matches are played to either a conclusion or a tie. Matches tied after 18 holes are not extended. Points awarded to players based on results of each match as follows:

 

Winner - 1 point

Loser - 0 points

Tied - 1/2 point per player

Tie breaker will be based first on your +/-, then second your head to head. Tiebreaker is determined by the differential between your win and loss.. ie. If you won your first match 5&4, and lost your second match 3&2, you would have a differential of +2.
