JACKSON PARK MEN'S GOLF CLUB
CHAMPIONSHIP NET MATCH PLAY 2023
ENTRY FEE: $20 per player
ENTRY DEADLINE: APRIL 18
START DATE: MAY 1
FORMAT: White Tees and 18-hole matches
If age and handicap combined are 85+, may play Gold Tees.
Play sudden death if tied after 18 holes, starting on the first hole.
Apply the same handicap holes as on the first 18 holes.
The course handicap of the higher handicap player will be reduced by the course handicap of the player with the lower handicap, who shall then play from scratch. The resulting handicap for the other player will be distributed as determined by hole handicaps. Example: Player #1, with a 4-course handicap, and Player #2, with an 8-course handicap, would have Player #1 play as scratch and Player #2 would play to a 4-handicap, taking strokes on the four holes rated from 1 to 4.

If players have not been able to play their matches on schedule, a coin toss will decide the victor.
WE WILL TRY ONCE AGAIN TO USE PODS.
Net Match Play Tournament has pods of four players ~ for the first round
Pods of four players guarantee multiple matches for every player (no more “one and done”). The winner of the pod advances and is in the money. Blind draws for pods. There may be some three-person pods depending on the total number of players who register.
Resolving ties in pods
If a 2-1 tie between two players, winner of their match advances.
If a 2-1 tie between three players, compare their three matches against each other and the winner by the most holes wins. For example, player A wins 2-1 and loses 4-3, net -2. Player B wins 3-1, loses 2-1, net +1. Player C wins 4-3, loses 3-1, net +1. If there is still a tie between two of the players (as in this case), the player who won their match advances, in this case B.
If there is still a three-way tie, coin flips will determine who advances—first player to win two coin flips out of a set of three advances. The set of three has a coin flip between A and B, B and C, and A and C. The Tournament Chairman may flip the coins without the players present.
