Teams:

• Each team will consist of three (3) or four (4) amateur golfers over the age of twenty-one (21).
• Only teams with verifiable handicaps will be entered into both the net & gross divisions, but will only be permitted to win in that division in which they place the highest.
• All handicaps will be verified at the golf course. Players must provide updated documentation such as a GHIN card, letter from a PRO or recognized league handicap. All handicaps are subject to review by the Tournament Director.
• All amateur teams are entered into the Gross division.
• Professional Players may play but are not eligible (and make their team not eligible) to compete in either the gross or net divisions.
• PLEASE NOTE:  In Canada, there is no NET Division.  All teams are entered in the Gross Division.

The format and rules presented below are for guidance and that all rule decisions are made at the local events by the Tournament Director.

General Rules:

• All Playboy Golf decisions under the direction of The Tournament Director are final.
• The course Pro and the Tournament Director shall determine which tees players will tee off from.
• For four (4) player teams, each team must use at least two (2) drives from each player.
• Teams consisting of three (3) players will not be permitted to make up the 4th shot.
• Team consisting of three (3) players, must use four (4)drives from each player.
• Teams will be allowed to move the ball one club length from the spot that the team is hitting from, but may not move it closer to the hole from a hazard or from the ruff to the fairway.
• In order to avoid scoring conflicts, teams will play in groups of 8 (two teams) and switch scorecards. Each team of 3 or 4 players will play the entire round together and sign each others score card at the end of the round verifying the score of the team is accurate. In the rare case when the golf course will not allow this format, we will provide marshals on the course to verify scores.
• USA ONLY- Local Tournaments - To ensure speed of play:
  • There will be no bogeys on all par 4’s and par 5’s. When your team misses your birdie opportunity, please pick-up and record a par. On the par 3’s, when your team misses a par opportunity, please pick-up and record a bogey.

Net division handicap formula:

• Each team may have no more than a total two players with handicaps under ten (10) and no more than one player with a handicap of five (5) or under.
• Thirty-six (36) will be the maximum allowable handicap in the scoring formula.
• All handicaps will be verified as described in the format section above. If you do not have a verifiable handicap, you will be given a zero handicap.
• Scoring Formula: Add up your three highest handicaps and then divide them by twelve (12).
• Take half of the lowest handicap & add it to the above total. This will be your team handicap.
• If a team consists of only three (3) players, the two highest handicaps will be divided by eight (8) and added to half of the remaining handicap.

Gross division will not be handicapped:

• Every eligible team is entered in the Gross division.
• There is no restriction on handicaps in the Gross division.

Rules will be governed by the local course rules and Playboy Golf under direction of the Tournament Director. Final rules for the event will be provided the day of the tournament.
