โœบ FAQ โœบ

  • Yes! If you donโ€™t have a teammate, weโ€™ll pair you with another solo player before the tournament starts.

  • We will have a max of 144 spots.

  • There are no minimum handicap requirements for this format given that we consider a teamโ€™s handicap in computing the final score. The two (2) team membersโ€™ aggregate USGA or Golf Canada Handicap Index cannot be greater than 40.0. A professional player may play as part of a team of two (2) and their handicap will be set at 0.0.

    • If a player does not have a verifiable USGA or Golf Canada Handicap, it will be set at 0.

    • The Handicap will be calculated where the event will be held.

    • Each team member will be playing at 70% handicap in the better-ball, stroke play format.

    • A maximum of 18 shots will be awarded towards a playerโ€™s handicap.

    • No one will be โ€giving back strokesโ€. The lowest handicap will be set at 0.

    • If a player is a no-show or is late, his/her partner can still play alone.

    For Example:

    • 0.0 + 0.0 = 0.0 (ELIGIBLE)

    • 10.8 + 26.8 = 37.6 (ELIGIBLE)

    • 22.8 + 30.2 = 53.0 (INELIGIBLE, team aggregate USGA or Golf Canada Handicap Index is greater than 40.0)

  • If you do not have an active USGA handicap you may still compete but you will be playing as a 0 handicap with no strokes given.

  • You will be competing against the top two-person teams from private clubs across the New York area. Time to rep NYC public golfers!

  • You can choose to play the tees of your choice. Your net score will adjust accordingly.
