Format and Prizes:
36-hole stroke play competition. In the event of a tie for the overall Champions in either men’s or women’s division, the winner shall be decided immediately by a hole-by-hole playoff.
Merchandise certificates will be awarded to the top gross and net finishers in all flights. Course Handicaps will be based on the May 19th Handicap Index. The gross and net champion in each flight will receive awards from Jones Sports Co and trophy awards. A tie of two players for the gross or net champion in any flight will result in awards being split and distribution of awards will be decided by lot. However, in the event of a tie of more than three players the USGA recommended scorecard playoff will be used to determine who will receive the awards (Jones Sports Co. product and trophy award). Merchandise certificates will be awarded within ties.
