Men's Club Tournament Policies

Tournament Payout:

Adopted as Policy by the Timber Creek Men's Golf Club Board of Directors at the February 2008 meeting and as revised at the March, 2008 meeting.

  1. In order to pay as many players as possible, if a contestant wins a place in both Low Gross and Low Net, he can only claim the higher prize. For example: if he wins 3rd in Low Gross and 4th in Low Net, he can only claim 3rd in Low Gross and cannot claim the Low Net prize.
  2. Should a player win closest to the flag stick on more than one par 3, he can claim only one. The next closest on the subject hole would be awarded that prize.
  3. If there are prizes for Low Gross, Low Net and Teams, a player that wins in both the team competition and either Low Gross or Low Net can claim the prize for the Team and also the higher of the Low Gross or Low Net.
  4. Ties will be broken in accordance with TCMC "PROCEDURES FOR MEN'S CLUB TOURNAMENTS" per the January 11, 2006 revision. Which is to compare scores on back 9, last 6, last 3 and the 18th hole. If the tie has not been broken, the same procedure will continue on the front 9 holes.
  5. Ties in closest to flag stick on par 3 holes will be broken by coin toss.
  6. If a player makes a hole in one on a par 3 hole, he will win closest to the flag stick prize for that hole and will be eligible to receive any prize awarded separately by the Men's Club.

        2) Forfeiture of right to play in the next tournament.

  • In the event of bona fide emergency, the Tournament Chairman has the authority to waive any part of the penalty.

Late Entries:

  • Any Player entering a tournament late (after pairings have been made) cannot participate for prize money with the foursome assigned. Said player will not be charged for participation in the tournament.

The blind draw used will participate in the prize money based on his foursome only.
