Anniston Country Club Tournament Rules

Anniston Country Club Round

FORMAT: LOW BALL
On each hole, both players on a team play their own ball until it is holed out. The lowest score of the two players counts as the team’s score on each hole.

BALL POSITION:
Before every shot, a player may lift, clean and place their ball improving their lie, no more than the LENGTH OF A SCORECARD from where their ball came to rest on the previous shot. The player may do this by either placing their ball or moving it with their golf club. A player CANNOT IMPROVE the lie of their ball in a HAZARD. A ball in any hazard must be PLAYED DOWN (as is). At no time can a player improve their ball position by moving it out of a hazard, from rough to fairway, or fringe to green. Once on the green, putts must be made from where the ball came to rest.

Sunday

MAXIMUM STROKE IMPROVEMENT: 

A team can improve a maximum of 5 strokes from Round 1 to Round 2 plus however many strokes they were behind the Leader of their Flight at the beginning of Round 2. If they improve by more than the maximum amount of strokes, they will automatically be moved to the next Flight. This applies to all Flights except the Championship Flight.

TEE BOXES: 

White Tees:  64 Years Old & Younger

Gold Tees:  65 Years Old & Above

NO GIMMES: 

All putts must be holed out.

NO MULLIGANS:

Once a player hits a shot, they are not allowed to replay that shot again, without it counting as another stroke.

NO HANDICAP STROKES:

No strokes are to be subtracted due to a player’s handicap.

SCOREKEEPING:

A team’s scorecard should be kept by the opposing team in their group.

LONGEST PUTT MADE:

The player making the longest putt on Hole #18 will be awarded $250 CASH.

TIES:

1st Place ties in the Championship Flight will be determined by a sudden death playoff alternating between 16th & 18th holes @ the Anniston Country Club. Ties for 1st Place in all other Flights will be determined by a sudden death playoff starting with the 1st hole and moving to the next. Ties for 2nd, 3rd & 4th Places in all flights will be determined by regression of the Anniston Country Club scorecards starting with the lowest handicap holes, which means the order of regression will be 6th, 14th, 2nd, 12th, 1st, 10th, 9th, 15th, etc...
