WMGA Tee Policy

WMGA Tee Policy - 2022

All 2022 events are BLUE tee events unless format is pre-designated by the tournament rules.

 

Play from the JONES, MATCH, SUPER SR. or FORWARD tees will be allowed based on the following criteria:

  • JONES Tees:                           Age + Index ≥ 65
  • MATCH (WHITE) Tees:       Age + Index ≥ 75
  • SUPER SR. Tees:                   Age + Index ≥ 85
  • FORWARD Tees:                   Age + Index ≥ 95

 

There is no rounding for either age, index or total… If you are 60 years and 6 months, you are 60. And, if your index is 4.5, your total is 64.5 and you are still MEDAL (BLUE) tees.  

 

MIXED TEE EVENT - All players are in the same tournament and all prize money is split across all players. This format would cover events such as a scramble event and most Match play type events (Woodmont Cups, Thursday League, etc.).

 

FIXED TEE EVENTS – Here, all play is to be from one set of tees. This would be events such as championship flight in Club Championships, Cross-Country, Red/White/Blue, etc.

 

The player(s) must designate what tees they wish to play from at the time they register to play in a tournament. A player that meets the criteria is not required to play from the JONES/MATCH/SUPER SR./FORWARD tees. A player may always play a longer but not a shorter course.

 

The Pro Shop will advise the Handicap Committee of those players that have registered to play from the JONES/MATCH/SUPER SR./FORWARD tees. The Handicap Committee and Pro Shop will determine if the player is eligible to play from these tees.

 

We will follow normal USGA/R&A guidelines for handicap adjustments. Whatever is the shortest tee being played will be basis for all other adjustments.
