Northern Chapter Fall Tournament 

 

Important Registration Note: The Northern Chapter Fall Tournament will allow both Pro-Assistant teams and Pro-Pro teams.

Start Times: Usually a shotgun event at Noon but due to COVID this may change to tee times starting in the morning. More details will be known closer to event date. 

 

Format: 18 holes at Four-Ball Stroke Play.

 

Scoring: All participants are reminded that Rule 23-2 states that in Four-Ball Stroke Play competition, the marker is required to record for each hole only the gross score of whichever partner's score is to count. The gross scores to count must be individually identifiable; otherwise the side shall be disqualified. 

Tees: There will be four sets of tees ( Men’s age 50-69 tees,  Women's age 49 and under/Men's age 70 and over tees, and Women's age 50 and over tees set at approximately 93%, 85%, and 79%, respectively, of the Men’s age 49 and under tees). This means that men age 70 and over will play "up" from the other senior men.

Ties: All ties, even for first place, will share prize monies.

Optional Contests: There will be an optional $50 per team Players Pool (30% of Players Pool entrants paid) game.
