3 Day Match Play Tournament – Description and Entry Form
The “Ernie Anderson” is a two-man event played as five nine-hole matches to determine the winner in six-team flights. This year the tournament will be held on the weekend of August 21st, 22nd & 23rd. On Friday we will do a 5:00 pm shotgun start for 9 holes with a cocktail party and heavy hors d’oeuvres after. On Saturday we will play 18 holes. Then Sunday 18 holes with a baby back ribs and chicken dinner after the round. Matches will be scheduled by tee time. Details and Conditions of Competition follow below.
Sign-up by Sunday August 16th.
- Play will be based on 100% handicap, and matches will be stroked off the low handicap in each match.
- 18-hole handicaps will be divided in 2 to give 9-hole handicaps. Half strokes will count and will not be rounded.
- The field is comprised of as many full 6-team flights as possible based on sign-up.
- Flights are set based on total team handicap.
- No more than a six-stroke differential may exist between partners.
- Each two-man team plays the other 5 teams in its flight once.
- A win is worth 2 points, plus 1/10th of a point for each hole the margin of victory is by after all 9-holes are played. For example, a team that wins its match 3-up after 9 holes wins 2.3 points, the loser 0. A tie match earns each team 1 point. The maximum any team can win in a match is 2.5 points.
- Tournament Entry Fee is $50.00 per team
