Men’s Night 8/13 — Chicago Back 9
For Men’s Night this week, we’ll be playing our Chicago format on the Back 9. All players play from white tees and Rule of 75 players (age + handicap >= 75) may play golds. Please record gross scores for all holes on scorecards with names clearly marked and turn in all completed cards to the Pro Shop.
Chicago Format: Players start with a negative number of points (based on 18-hole course handicaps) then add positive points during their round. The idea is to get from the negative to the positive, clearing your “hurdle” by as many points as possible.
Match Play Next Round Deadline: Sunday, August 30th
The deadline for our current round of matches is Sunday, August 30th. Please email [email protected] or call the Pro Shop (301) 292-1100 if you need your opponent’s contact information.
If your match has been completed, please make sure the results have been reported to [email protected] so we can update the online brackets.
One important note as matches continue deeper into the season: Match Play is intended for active NGC members through the conclusion of the tournament in October. If your membership plans have changed and you do not expect to remain a member through that time, please let us know and, as a courtesy to the bracket and the remaining players, allow your scheduled opponent in the current round to move forward. We certainly understand that circumstances can change and appreciate everyone’s help keeping the tournament moving along fairly and smoothly.
