DISTANCE-MEASURING DEVICES

For all play during WMGA competitions a player may obtain distance information by use of a distance-measuring device. If during a stipulated round, a player uses a distance-measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play (e.g., elevation changes, wind speed, etc.), the player is in breach of Rule 14-3.

 

FORMAT

18-holes of best-ball-of-four stroke play. Each player receives 90% of the Course Handicap, taking the strokes as they fall on the card. Only the player’s score that counts as the gross or net score for the team for each hole needs to be recorded on the official score card.  Certificates are awarded to the members of the low gross and net teams. Ties will be decided by matching cards. The winner of each will be determined on the basis of the best team score, gross or net as applicable, for the last nine holes of the day.  If still tied, the winner will be determined on the basis of the best team score, gross or net as applicable, for the last six holes, last three holes and finally the 18th hole.  One-half, one-third, one-sixth and one-eighteenth of each player’s Course Handicap will be deducted to determine the best net score.  If this procedure does not break the tie, the winner will be determined by blind draw.

One caddie will be assigned per group. If your team would like a second caddie, please email Jen Browne, jbrowne@wmga.com. Additional caddies will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis, if available.
