WMGA/MGA WOMEN’S MET AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP (POY Points Awarded)

 

Entry Fee: $90 per player

Days: 1

 

 

Eligibility:  Handicap Index of 12.0 or less on the day of entry; open to WMGA members and non-members who are residents of the New York metropolitan area (60 miles of NYC limits or within MGA Territory).  If a subsequent handicap revision makes the player ineligible for the event one week prior to the Championship, she will not be required to withdraw; however, she will be required to use the maximum allowable Index of 12.0.  Field is limited to 80 players. Exceptions will be determined by the Competitions Committee.

 

Format: 18 holes of stroke play. Use 95% of the player's Course Handicap. Pairings made by the Committee. Trophy awarded to the low gross winner. Ties for the gross trophy will be decided by an immediate hole-by-hole playoff beginning on a hole decided by the committee. A player not present for the playoff must forfeit the playoff. Ties for the net prize will be decided by a match of cards.  The winner will be determined on the basis of the best net score for the last nine holes.  If still tied, the winner will be determined on the basis of the best net score for the last six holes, the last three holes and finally the 18th hole.  For net prizes, one-half, one-third, one-sixth and one-eighteenth of each player’s Course Handicap will be deducted to determine the best net score.  If a tie is not broken by this procedure, a winner will be determined by blind draw.
