FORMAT: Individual Chicago Points
Individuals will each play their own ball and finish out on each hole and cannot take worse than a gross double bogey on any hole. Based on their course handicap, each player will be given a “Quota” number of points to be reached using points (Eagle – 8 pts, Birdie – 4 pts, Par – 2 pts, Bogey - 1pt, Double Bogey or worse – 0 pts) scoring. Players who exceed their “Quota” by the greatest margin in each flight will receive gift card money.
Players play to gross in this format, but a player’s “quota” points are calculated using 95% of the course handicap (maximum Course Handicap of 36) they would have received in individual stroke play per USGA recommendations. (i.e. 39 - course handicap = player’s quota points). Players will be assigned to separate flights based off their handicap index as of his/her October 6th handicap revision. All players will receive 95% of their course handicap, per USGA/World Handicap guidelines. The top finishers in each flight will receive gift card money to Amazon.
