Society: TGC Tours (Special Events)
Field
- Top 64 PGA players according to FedEx points - must have played once in past 5 weeks
- we'll have 2 or 3 waiting to backfill for inactive members in Part 1 - taken from next in line on FedEx points
- No new players will be subbed in after Part 2 begins on website
- If you are not in WGC Dell Match Play you can play minor event in PGA Tour society (Colales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship)
Tournament Format:
16 groups of 4 players each - play each person in your group 1 time (3 matches total)
Winner of each group moves on to Single Elimination Bracket (Round of 16)
Single Elimination Format
Starting at Round of 16 - win and move on
Note there is a 3rd/4th place match so if you make it to the Semi-Finals you'll be playing the last round win or lose
Group Tiebreakers
2-way ties: Head-to-head match-up, then match play score of just the B9, then hole-by-hole countback starting on the 18th, then best FedEx ranking if still tied. (middle two tiebreakers are from the head-to-head match-up)
3-way ties: count-back of Front 9 of round 3 (starting on 9th hole and working back)
*** note some manual fudging of results (point difference) may need to be made on bracket scores to ensure proper person moves on based on tiebreakers above

*** IMPORTANT ***
- Please have a pic of your scorecard (with hole by hole scores) as backup
- if your per hole scores do not show up via the API and you do not have a pic of scorecard, you will lose by default assuming the other player has per hole scores
- If both players do not have API per hole scores and only one provides a pic of their scorecard, they will win
- If both have no API scores and both do not provide a pic, lowest total score will win assuming I can verify they actually played the round - otherwise it's a tie
You want your per hole scores available should the API fail you! You do not need to do anything with this pic until you have issues - so just keep them handy. If you are confident the API will not fail you then feel free to skip this request.
