Bad weather, in and of itself, is not a good reason for discontinuing play.

However, per Rule 6.8.a (II), a player may discontinue play if he/she believes there is danger from lightning.

If either the course or the Local Tour Director suspends play due to weather, all players must immediately mark their balls and cease playing until the Local Tour Director announces play may resume.

Any delays or cancellation of a tournament will be determined by the golf course and their staff in conjunction with the Tour Director.

Unplayable Course Conditions

If a course becomes unplayable during a tournament, the tournament may still be declared official if all players in a flight have played at least nine holes, regardless of the hole combination.

Weather Shortened Tournament (Official)

• Tournament results will be based solely upon the same holes (or like holes) all players finish in each flight.  Must be a minimum of 9 holes played.
• If players have the same score after reviewing each viable hole combination, the players will split both points and the prizes associated with the tied positions.
• In the event of a tie for first place, the Local Tour Director will speak with all affected players and course personnel to determine if tied players will wait until the course becomes playable to complete an on-course playoff or if the players will split the points and prizes.

Tournament Cancelled Due to Weather

• A makeup date will be announced as soon as one is determined.
• Refunds will not automatically be issued and will instead be applied to the scheduled makeup date or handled under the Tournament Withdrawal and No Show policies.
• The refund choice will be up to the player; however, it must be communicated by email to the Tour Director.
