Edwin Watts 2 Man Challenge
Edwin Watts Golf will again sponsor the 2-Man Challenge during the 2018 National Tour Championship. It is a tournament within a tournament. Just choose a partner and your combined actual scores for each round of the Tour Championship will be entered as your team score. At the end of the Tour Championship, the top 5 teams in each flight will be awarded prizes during the National Tour Championship Awards Ceremony and pictures will be taken.
Your entry fee of $100 per team ($50 Per player) will be your registration and must be paid before you are officially entered.
How do I create a team?
- Both players on a team must be in the same flight. The players do not have to be playing the same course each day.
- Players can play on multiple teams but a separate entry fee is required for each team.
How does the scoring work? Gross scores from each round will be added together for each day’s score. The team with the lowest total 3 day score at the end of Tour Championship will be declared the winners.
What if there is a tie? Ties for first place will be determined by a playoff on Arthur Hills (Palmetto Dunes) on Sunday. The team will determine which player will play in the playoff. All other ties for the top 5 places will be done in a playoff by last day score, day two score and if need be day one score to break the ties.
What do we win? The Champions in each flight will receive trophies. In addition, the top 5 teams in each flight will receive Palmetto Dunes merchandise gift cards which can be redeemed at any of the the Pro shsps as well as the following locations:
