The competition will consist of two-person teams of any two World Am participants. Players can sign up in their profile listing their partner and the partner will need to sign up listing them. Teams compete in their respective World Am flights and play 72-holes of combined net stroke play in relation to course par. The top five (5) teams and ties will qualify to compete in the Championship Round on Friday. The scores will then be reset and the the top five (5) will be determined by Friday’s round.
If all competitors are not able to complete any round on any given day, that day’s score will not be used to compute the totals for ALL teams. One completed tournament round will constitute a tournament.
Because we utilize scoring based on the courses par & difficulty while utilizing your tournament handicap, there will be one flight/division for all teams no matter what flight(s) your team plays in.
Your World Am Tournament index will also serve as your index for competition. If you compete in the Flight Winner’s Playoff your index for that day is based on your prior 72-hole performance.
Any tie for fifth to determine who plays Friday will not be broken.
Ties on Friday will be broken using combined team net back 9 scores, then team front 9 nine. If a tie still exists, it will be broken using the lowest individual 18 hole net score from Friday, then individual back 9, then individual front 9. If a tie still exists (or Friday was not completed), it will be broken using the combined team net scores in relation to par from the most recent completed tournament round going backwards. The final tie breaker will be broken using the lowest individual net score from the most recent completed tournament round going backwards.
If during the course of play at the World Am either team member is disqualified, their team will also be disqualified from the competition. No refunds will be given to either party. All decisions of the World Amateur Golf tournament committee are final.
If you must cancel prior to the start of play, be sure to identify you are participating in the Pairs Competition to process your refund appropriately.
Scoring is by cumulative net score in relation to par.
Full refunds up to August 29th, 2027. You may cancel by clicking here.
After August 29th, 2027 no refunds are granted regardless of nature of request.
