Question 2

Are the events handicap qualifiers and will they automatically post to WHS?

Accepted Answer

Yes and Yes.  If the event is eligible to be a handicap qualifier (which most of them will be) Golf Genius will automatically post the score to WHS meaning you don't have to keep a separate digital scorecard.

Question 3

Can I play without a handicap?

Accepted Answer

In short, yes but you can’t win!!  It’s important that there is a robust structure in place so that we can all play on a level playing field.  If you don’t have an active handicap you are still welcome to come and play but you will not be eligible to win the main prizes.  You can, however enter the 2s sweep and win from that should you make a 2 and win any nearest the pin prizes on the day.  
Please ensure that you are of a decent enough standard that you can keep up with the pace of play and not cause anybody any delays.

Question 4

How do I find out the results?

Accepted Answer

We will send an email to all players with a report of the day as soon as the event is over.

Full results are also available on Golf Genius.

Question 5

What if the weather is bad?

Accepted Answer

Generally we will play through inclement weather however if the course is closed we will refund or transfer your payment to another event.

Question 6

Do I have to have a team of 2 or 4?
