Rules:
- Format:
2-man teams play hole-by-hole matches throughout the season as
determined by the brackets. The team with the lowest total net score
wins each hole (or holes are halved if tied). The winning team of each
match advances to the next round.
- Members must compete from the blue tees unless approved to play forward for the season (see Forward Tee Policy).
- If
competing from different tee boxes, a white tee player's course
handicap (from the white tees) should be decreased by two per USGA guidelines (and be compared against the other players' blue tee course handicaps).
- Matches
must be played at Brown Deer prior to due dates on a weekend unless all players
unanimously agree to play at another course and/or on a weekday.
- USGA rules of golf for stroke play apply and disputes shall be handled accordingly.
- Any player without a current WSGA handicap index at the time of a match must compete as a scratch.
- Use current handicap indexes to determine course handicaps. The player with the lowest handicap should always play as a scratch. Reduce the course handicaps
of three members by the course handicap of the member with the
lowest handicap. Handicap strokes should be allocated at 100% according to the scorecard rankings of the course played.
- For
example, assume that members with indexes of 5.5, 10.5, 15.5 and 20.5
are competing. Also, the player with an index of 20.5 will be competing
from the white tees.
- Indexes
should first be converted to course handicaps of 6 for Member A, 12 for
Member B, 17 for Member C (from the blue tees) and 22 for Member D
(from the white tees). Member D's course handicap would be reduced by 2
strokes to 20 to compensate for the different tee boxes played
(resulting in a 3 stroke reduction relative to Member D's blue tee
course handicap of 23). For details regarding the adjustment for
players competing from different tee boxes, click here and view the bottom of the page.
- For
the match, Member A would play at scratch. Members B, C and D would
play with course handicaps of 6 (blue tees), 11 (blue tees) and 14
(white tees), respectively. So Member B would receive one stroke on
holes ranked 1-6. Member C would receive one stroke on holes ranked
1-11. Member D would receive one stroke on holes ranked 1-14.
- All deadlines must be met, or both teams will be disqualified.
- In the event of a tie after 18-holes, the following rules apply:
- Members
should request permission from the starter to play a sudden death
playoff starting on hole #1. If starting on hole #1 isn't feasible, the
pro shop will attempt to suggest a different starting hole. Regardless
of the starting hole as dictated by the pro shop, handicap strokes
should again be allocated as they fall on the card.
- If
the above does not resolve the Match, it shall be considered a tie and
the Match should be played over. A one week grace period will be
granted if necessary.
- If the Match is still unresolved, the team with the lowest net team Medal Score for the initial 18 holes is the winner.
- If
a player is disabled prior to the first Match, another member may
replace him. Once the first match is played, there can be no
substitutions of players for any reason.
- The winning team of each match is responsible for immediately updating the online brackets. If you experience any technical issues, report your match results to bdgcnews@gmail.com.
