The Simgolf GSPro Fall 2021 2 Man Scramble will be a single elimination tournament with a pre tournament round to determine bracket seedings. All tournament rounds after the initial seeding round will be match play. We do not have a way to enforce game settings, so this will be an on your honor tournament. To reduce the number of issues, please make every effort to play against your opponents in a live online match.
Scoring
All matches will be played as match play with no handicaps. For matches played live, please let @rmsanger know the winner of the match. For other matches, please submit a screenshot of the final scorecard to @rmsanger. If you run into issues during gameplay and need to exit/resume, please capture the scorecard up to the last played hole. Start a new match and play the remaining holes. Send the screenshots of all scorecards and we will combine for a final score. To reduce risk of issues, it would be advised to capture a picture of the scorecard after each hole.
How to take a screenshot using Windows snipping tool.
In the event of a tie, the USGA Method (Last 9, 6, 3, 1) will be used to determine a winner. If the teams are still tied most birdies, most eagles or better, then fewest bogeys will be used to break the tie. In the unlikely event the teams are still tied, a coin flip will determine the winner.
