The Mulligan Bracket

Single elimination used to mean half the field was done in April with a whole summer of nothing to play for. Not anymore.

Lose in Round 1 and you drop into a second full bracket that runs May through October on the same schedule, same courses, same rules. No signup, no extra fee, and $500 waiting at the end of it.
