Format: Chapman (2 person team)
Both players will play from the teeing ground and each player plays his or her partner's ball for the second shot. After the second shot, partners select the ball with which they wish to score, and play that ball alternately to complete the hole. The team handicap index will be calculated based on 60% from the lower index and 40% from the higher index.
(BASICALLY - you will NOT hit the same ball twice consecutively! If you have questions please ask Gavin Fong)
The tiebreaker will be determined on the basis of the best score for the last nine holes. If the tying players have the same score for the last nine holes, they check the last six holes, then the last three holes, and finally the 18th hole.
If this method is used, one-half, one-third, one-sixth, or one-18th of the Course Handicaps should be deducted. Again, fractions of one-half stroke or more should count as a full stroke; any lesser fractions should be disregarded. If the conditions of the competition provide that ties shall be decide over the last nine, last six, last three, or last hole, then the Committee should also provide what will happen if all these procedures fail to produce a winner (last 12, last 15 next).
Settling ties is difficult and sometime controversial, but these USGA guideline help Committees in charge of competitions decide who the winner is in an orderly and equitable fashion. No matter how you fare, you will be confident the competition was settled fairly using these time proven methods.
Call me Sunday morning to verify if it is Rain or shine at Pittsburg - Please do not assume if it is raining in your area that the tournament if off!
