2024 WOMEN’S FLAG TOURNAMENT

Saturday, June 15, 2024 – Mountain View and Stony Lick Courses

TIME: Tee times will begin at 8 am on both courses.

ELIGIBILITY: Players must have an established USGA handicap and must be current members
of the WWGA. The Stony Lick Flag Tournament is for players who typically play Stony Lick and
have a Stony Lick course handicap of 29 or higher. Players with course handicaps under 29 will
need the Tournament Chair’s approval to play in the Stony Lick Flag Tournament. 

HANDICAPS: Players will receive 100% of their 18-hole course handicap, up to 39 strokes on
MV and 38 strokes on SL.

TOURNAMENT FEE: is $15 and will be collected on the day of the tournament, along with the
optional $5 for the “Closest to the Hole” competition and 50/50 tickets at $5 each or 3 for $10.

FORMAT: This is an 18-hole individual stroke event. Each player plays her own ball and has a
target number of strokes equal to par plus her course handicap. For example, if your MV course
handicap is 32, your target score is 104 (72+32); if your SL course handicap is 32, your target
score is 94 (62+32). Your target score will be noted on your scorecard. As you play, once you
reach your target score, plant your flag where your ball landed on your last stroke made to
reach the target score. Whiffs and all penalty strokes must be included in your gross score for
the hole and count against the target score. You may continue to play after planting your flag if
you haven’t finished the 18 holes. If you haven’t reached your target score by the end of the 18
holes, continue play starting on the 1st hole until you reach your target score then plant your
flag. If you holed out on your last stroke for your target score, notate that on the flag and plant
your flag off the green to get it out of the way for other players. 

WINNERS: The player who advances the ball farthest on the course is the winner. The Woods Golf Pro will use his phone to measure the distance to determine the winners. His determination is final. 

TIE BREAKS: If two or more players are the same distance farthest along the course, those
players will have a play-off starting on the 1st hole using par plus their handicaps for the hole as
a target score. Play will continue (using par for the hole plus players’ handicaps) until one player
has planted her flag farther than the others. 

POSTING SCORES: Scores must be posted in GHIN for this tournament.

DROP AREAS may not be used in this format.

USGA AND WOODS GOLF CLUB LOCAL RULES APPLY, including the E5 rule.
