Opening Day Format

 

The Opening Day Tournament to be held on the 15th of January 2023 and it is a 4-man Team event (ABCD). The format of play will be as follows:

 

It is a Lone Ranger format where, on each hole, 1 player of the team will be playing by himself/herself, while the remaining 3 players will be playing a 3-man Shamble. This means all 3 players tee off, then the 3 players select the best drive they want to use, and all 3 players then play their own ball from the drive until holed. The best score from the 3 Shamble players, plus the score from the lone player will count as the combined score for the team for the hole. 3 drives per player are required within the Shamble format. The drive of the lone player playing his own ball does not count towards the minimum drive count within the Shamble group.

 

Handicaps will be at 75% of the player handicap for all 4 players. The Gross score of each player will be recorded in the Golf Genius App and the App will automatically do the necessary calculations. The maximum score for each player per hole will be double net bogey. The App will automatically adjust any scores higher than the maximum.

 

Men will be playing from the White tees and Ladies will be playing from the Red tees.
