Major Monthly Event Handicaps
Method
In the interest of fair play, the board of the Men’s Club @ Auburn is adopting a tournament adjustment handicap system for our members who frequently outperform the tournament field in major monthly events. Points will be assessed for top 5 NET SCORES IN EACH FLIGHT for tournament competitions. Based on the points assessed, the Handicap Reduction Scale will be applied to the players tournament handicap for Major Member Events. The purpose of this adjustment is to ensure the integrity of our major member events.
A Major Member Event is defined as any event where the men’s club adds additional money to the prize fund.
No additional money is added to the weekly payouts; therefore, no points are issued for top finishes in weekend desk games and weekly summer best ball competitions.
