Deciding Ties

Individual Championships Only (Men, Women and Foursomes)

Ties for first place are separated by sudden death playoff.

Handicap Events

Ties for first place only are separated by the best score over the final 18 holes.

If the best score for the final 18 holes does not separate out a winner, ties are separated by the best score over the final nine holes.

If the best score for the final nine holes does not separate out a winner, then the final six holes are used, and, if that still fails to provide a definitive outcome, the final three holes.

If a tie still persists, the best score hole-by-hole backwards from the final hole is used.

If this method does not produce a winner, the tied players will be declared joint winners.
