Format for the Bandon Dunes Links Championship

 

Fourball: This is the most common team competition in golf. It is a competition in which two competitors play as partners, each playing his/her own ball. The lower score of the two partners is the score for the hole. If one partner fails to complete the play of a hole, there is no penalty.

 

We will be using the green tees except for those players who are 60 years old and older. They may choose to play from the gold tees. Handicaps will be adjusted for those playing up. We will make the adjustments on the tee for those who move up.

 

Handicaps

 

The Fourball format utilizes each player’s lowest index in the past 12-months.  Any players with an index higher than 19.5 will be adjusted to the maximum allowed.
