Friday & Saturday, July 31 & August 1
Entry Fee: $400/$800 | ENTRIES OPEN: June 5, 2020
You are cordially invited to participate in the Mayacama Member-Member Match Play Tournament on Friday and Saturday, July 31 & August 1. For the 2020 Member-Member, we will continue with the 9-hole Match Play format, but will introduce all three forms of match play; Four-Ball, Foursome and Singles Match Play. This is a great way to meet your fellow Members and enjoy playing 5 nine-hole matches with everyone in your flight. There will be lots to celebrate in the Member-Member...food, wine, prizes, and getting together with your fellow Members to enjoy a fun and exciting match play tournament. We hope to see you there!
FORMAT:
We will be adopting three forms of match play for this year’s Member-Member:
- Four-Ball Match Play – Two partners compete together as a side with each playing his or her own ball. The side’s score on a hole is the lower score of the two partners on that hole.
- Foursome Match Play (Also Known as Alternate Shot) – Two partners compete together as a side by alternating in making strokes at a single ball. One partner must play first for the side from the teeing area of all odd numbered holes while the other partner must play first from the teeing area of all even numbered holes.
- Singles Match Play – In Singles Match Play, a player and an opponent compete against each other based on holes won, lost or tied.
Five 9-hole matches will be played within each flight. Scoring for the matches will be based on the following point system:
- Hole Won: 1 Point
- Hole Halved: ½ Point
- Maximum Points per nine hole match: 7 Points
FLIGHTS: The field will be divided into Flights based on the number of entries (Two Women’s Flights and Four Men’s Flights). The combined Course Handicaps of the two team Members will determine which flight the team will be assigned. Each Flight will consist of six teams. Play will be from the following tee markers:
- Men: Middle Tee Markers
- Women: Forward Tee Markers
OVERALL CHAMPIONS: The Overall Champions will be decided by a Shoot-Out among the Flight Winners. The format for the shoot-out is Foursome Stroke Play (Alternate Shot). The number of holes used in the Shoot-Out will be based on the number of flights in each division.
HANDICAP: The Tournament Committee will be using your current USGA Handicap Index as of June 15, 2020. Strokes for all matches will be distributed according to the Stroke Index on the scorecard. For players whose handicap is an odd number, ½ strokes will be given. (Example: If a player has a handicap of 9 strokes, he/she will receive a total of 4-½ strokes per nine-hole match.) The maximum handicap differential between partners is 10 strokes. In all matches, the player or side with the lowest handicap shall play at scratch and all other players or side will receive 100% of the difference.
PRIZES:
- Overall Champions
- Flight Winners
- Flight Runners-Up
- Commemorative Tee Prize for Each Player
