SGC - Majors Schedule

Major Tournament Schedule

All Tournaments will be governed by USGA Rules

In addition to the weekly games held by the SGC for members, several major tournaments are held each year. These Tournaments are intended for regular club members, and required by the AGA to maintain the Club's "TYPE" designation.
The TD will determine tournament eligibility priority based on a minimum of 10 plays with the Club over a 12 month period.
Players not meeting this 12 month requirement will be eligible to play (space available) but will not be eligible for tournament prizes. New members will follow the guidelines above but will need only (6) club plays to be eligible to play in a major tournament.
In the event of ties for first place, first place winners will determined using the USGA Tie Breaker recommendations.

Each player will accumulate points based upon the GROSS score he/she posts for each hole. For instance a 12 handicap will have a quota of 24 and a 4 handicap will have a quota of 32. Each player tries to exceed their quota points and the player with the highest accumulated points wins the match. Wednesday & Saturday players scores are combined so as to form one pool with one champion.

Cost – $10/player + SGC is contributing $100 for CTPs
Format – Two Person Shamble. This is a two player net competition where each member of the team tees off. The team then selects the best drive and both players play their next shots from there. Both players then finish the hole with their own ball. The team score is the best net score on the hole of either player. Teams may be chosen or will be assigned, but the maximum difference in handicap for a team is 10. 90% of handicap will be used to score the Shamble.
The winners of the CTPs will be announced and they will be paid out at the lunch. The format money will be paid out the following week as usual. There are no skins paid for the shamble format.
