Distance Measuring Devices
Per the USGA Rules of Golf - Rule 4-3, players may obtain distance by using a Distance Measure Device (DMD).
Any DMD that measures other variables, like Slope, may be used but the Slope Feature MUST BE TURNED OFF.
If during a stipulated round, a player uses any feature, other than distance, (for example - gradient, wind speed, temperature, etc), the player is in breach of Rule 4-3a.
Pace of Play
For all (3) rounds each pairing group will consist of a maximum of 3 players.
This will help maintain a better pace by eliminating one player from each group.
Allotted Time - Maximum times to play will be determined for each day of the Championship. Maximum times to play each hole will be printed on each competitor’s scorecard, and competitors will be additionally advised of that day’s maximum time to play prior to starting. It is the group’s responsibility to finish each checkpoint within the times outlined on the scorecard or within position of the group directly in front of them. When a group falls behind – regardless of the reason – it must regain its position. Time for ball searches, rulings, and walking time between holes is included in the allotted time.
2019 USGA Rule 5.6 - Undue Delay; Slow Play states: "The player must play without undue delay and in accordance with any pace of play guidlines that the Committee may establish. Between completion of a hole and playing from the next teeing ground, the player must not unduly delay play." PLAY READY GOLF if your group is out of position.
