The Mid-Atlantic Players Championship Rulebook
Shotgun Mulligans
Two on the Front, Two on the back; no carryover
Only available on the tee box
You must shotgun the beer before hitting your second shot
You may choose to play your first drive but the shotgun mulligan is still forfeited
Airplane liquor bottles may be substituted for beers
Breakfast Ball Is In Play (it’s always in play)
Free second tee shot off #1 if necessary
Everything is Lateral
Ex. If your drive goes OB, drop a ball approximately where it went out, take a one stroke penalty, and hit three from there.
Putter Length Gimmes
Any putt inside the length of your putter is considered good.
Winter Rules (Fairway)
Lift, clean, and place in the fairway
Play It As It Lies (Rough)
Unless you're on a root, rock, ect. Don’t hurt yourself but don’t move yourself out from behind a tree either.
Double Par
Max score on each hole is Double Par. Once you reach this score, pick it up and move on.
Long Drive/ Closest to the Pin
Long drive must be in the fairway to count
Closest to the pin must be on the green to count
Tiebreakers
Individual
Players tied for the best low net score will replay the last hole repeatedly until there is a victor. If no extra holes are available, perform a scorecard match play with strokes on appropriate holes (starting at #1). If 2+ players are tied, group rock paper scissors with 3 lives each until only two players remain, then scorecard match. If scorecard match is all square, players are named co-champions. There are no shotgun mulligans allowed in playoff holes.
Scramble
Groups tied for the best total score will perform a scorecard matchplay starting at #1. If three or more groups are tied, each group nominates one player to play group rock paper scissors, same rules as above until two teams remain, then scorecard matchplay.
** The lateral hazard rule, breakfast ball, shotgun mulligans, and putter length gimmies do not apply to the scramble round.
