Event Format Changes
Tournament Chairman Bob Remey has announced that the
remaining Pinehurst format events on the 2016 schedule have been changed to
Modified Pinehurst. In Modified Pinehurst, both team members tee off.
They select the one
best drive, then play alternate shot into the cup. The golfer whose
drive was not chosen hits the second shot. (The expectation is that this
format should allow rounds to be completed in under 4 hours in the
hottest summer months).
The changes have been made
to the online schedule and the General Tournament Information will be
updated to include the format description.
