​

8/03/20 Update

SHOTGUN START

Stroke Tournament flighted by handicap. Names can be provided as foursomes, threesomes, twosomes or single. This year we are allowing you to sign up as twosomes and foursomes so you are comfortalbe riding to Sunset Hills (Edwardsville) together and riding in a cart together. You may be playing  with people in your foursome that are NOT in you flight (major change from the past). We are trying to avoid single riders in carts, as it is hard on the golf curse and limits the number of players we can accomodate.

​

1.  A one-day, stroke-play tournament, played in flights to determine the Low-Net and Low-Gross Senior Champions.

 

2.  Refer to STLWDGA Rules and Regulations, excluding Eligibility and Other Competitive Events.
