Practice Round
The official practice round day is Monday, July 17th. Times are available from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm only. Please email your practice round tee time requests to casey@clgolf.org. DO NOT call the Falcon Lakes Golf Club golf shop to arrange practice round starting times.
Championship Format
All championship contestants play in the first and second 18-hole rounds on July 18th and 19th. After these 36 holes, the low 64 scores will be determined. If a tie exists for the 64th seed, a sudden-death playoff will be conducted on July 19th and will begin 10 minutes after the final score is posted to the main scoreboard. The starting tee for the playoff will be announced and posted to the main scoreboard. All players subject to the playoff must be present at the playoff starting tee for the call of the roll. Any player not present will be eliminated from the playoff. The match play bracket will be determined and seeded based on the player's 36-hole score with ties broken by random draw (new in 2023). Matches will be played over 18 holes, with the exception of the Championship match that will be played over 36 holes.
Golf Carts (Players & Spectators)
Practice Round - Golf cart is provided during the practice round as part of your entry fee.
Tournament Rounds - Golf cart is included as part of your entry fee for all championship proper rounds (July 18-23). Only two carts are allowed per starting time during the stroke play qualifying rounds on July 18 and July 19. Single rider carts will be used during the match play portion of the championship.
Spectator Carts - Spectator carts will be limited during the championship. Inquire with the host course golf shop staff about availability.
Caddies
Caddies are allowed, but only two carts are allowed per starting time in stroke play. Players will have seating priority on carts. If you bring a caddie to the championship, the caddie should be prepared to walk.
