The details

Teams + scoring

We will draft two teams and arrange all matches based on a combination of player requests, profiles, and handicaps. Ongoing match results and team standings will be tracked live on Golf Genius throughout the event.

Format

  • Round 1: Modified alternate shot or “Chapman”. Both players on a team will tee off, and then hit each other’s second shot. After both players have hit 2 shots, the team will choose one ball to continue with in an alternate shot format until the ball is holed.

  • Round 2: Best ball. Both players will complete each hole independently, and record only the best net score between them.

  • Round 3: Singles matches. Each player will be paired against one player from the opposing team for an 18-hole 1-on-1 match.

Included for $1,945CAD

  • 3 rounds of golf (Kilspindie warm-up round available for $165CAD upcharge)
