Match Play 2025 is on!

FORMAT:

1. The Match Play event is an ongoing single-elimination tournament in which an individual plays match play (best ball net), during each round. The winning player advances to the next round. All players must be current members of the UGCSA.

2. Each competitor plays their own ball from tee to green. The player with the lowest net score on a given hole wins that hole. The match is won by the individual that is leading by a number of holes greater than the number of holes remaining to be played. (e.g., 4 up with 3 holes to play – known as winning 4 & 3).

3. The stipulated round is 18 holes; however, if both teams agree in advance, the stipulated round may be adjusted to 9-holes or less. If 9 holes is selected, then each person’s handicap needs to be cut in half. 

4. If the match is even after the last hole, the match continues until a winner is decided. Handicap strokes remain the same for playoff holes.

6. USGA Rules apply: https://www.usga.org/rules-hub.html
