 Cut Policy

Round 1 Tee Times will begin at 7:30am. Round 2 & 3 Tee Times will be based off the previous rounds scores and will begin at 7:30am. 

Low 30 + ties in the Championship Division will make the cut for the final day (May 27).

 

If a player’s breach of Rule 3.3b(3) is discovered after the cut is official, and the addition of penalty strokes, from a round prior to the cut, results in the player’s score being higher than the cut score, the player will be withdrawn from the field and will be considered to have missed the cut. Any such player is ineligible for any “made the cut” points or other benefits.
