I've already signed up for the handicapped division, can I switch?
Yes, please contact tournament staff to change your registration to gross. Likewise, you can also switch from gross back to handicapped play prior to August 17, 2018.
Can I compete in both the gross and net divisions?
No, you may only compete in one division.
How do you score the final round?
Because all competitors in their respective Gross Division that qualify for the Championship Round Friday played the same 72-holes previously, scores will NOT be reset and serve as a 90-hole cumulative tournament.
Is there a handicap requirement to play gross?
No. However we do ask that all players in the gross division be the equivalent of a 7 handicap or better.
Gross Divisions are subject to participation. If 45 players are not attained in either division all players will automatically be assigned the closest net division in relation to gender, age and handicap.
