Pre - Tournament Important Dates

Late June

Or within 7 days of registration, you'll receive a 'WHS/GHIN club verification' form to verify you keep a valid Handicap Index. Those unable to complete this form need to contact tournament staff and secure a valid handicap service prior to the end of the day August 9th.

Most online handicap services that have been valid in the past are no longer able to correctly calculate a Handicap Index. All Handicap Indexes MUST be kept through your State or Allied Golf Association.

Early August

All eligible scores for World Am participants must be posted to an official WHS/GHIN handicap by this time.

August 9th

All World Am participants handicap forms are due. Any participant that fails to meet this deadline may be deemed ineligible for tournament prizes.

If you are unable to use a computer or mobile device to complete it during this time, it is recommended you contact staff ahead of time.

1 Week Prior to the Event

The expected date all participants will be informed of their 4 golf courses for tournament week! *Or the most timely manner feasible given user submissions.
