The Tournament Director reserves the right to make any necessary changes and accommodations as deemed reasonable and appropriate.
ELIGIBILITY: Any person is eligible with a USGA Handicap Index or equivalent not exceeding 1.7 at the time of acceptance in the tournament and who meets all the other eligibility requirements for this event. Any person may enter this tournament at any time provided the entry is received on or before the closing date and the field is not closed. Entries are subject to rejection at any time (including during the Championship) by the Tournament Director. The reason for rejection may include unbecoming conduct.
ENTRY FEE: The entry fee for this tournament is $275.00 (two hundred seven-five dollars). This fee includes green fees for all players during the weekend qualifying and for those that make the Monday cut. This does not include a practice round. It is highly advised that you mail your entry at least 15 working days prior to the closing date, as all late entries are considered as a request to be put on waiting list. The closing date to enter this tournament is May 15, 2018. Historically, the event is filled two weeks prior to the closing date. The entry fee does not include golf cart or caddy.
CANCELLATION POLICY: Any accepted entry may be cancelled providing actual notice is given to the Tournament Director, John Rochelle, 3101 Marlynn Street, Carmichael, California 95608 prior to May 15, 2018. There will be a $25.00 administrative fee assessed.
FORMAT: The field will be limited to the first 120 eligible contestants. The tournament shall be a 54-hole scratch-stroke play event. There will be a 36-hole cut of the low 40 players and ties. In the event of a tie for the championship after 54 holes, a three-hole playoff on holes #9, #10, and #18 will be played to determine the winner. If a tie still exists after the three-hole playoff, the players will have a sudden-death playoff on the same holes until a winner is determined. The winner will be declared the “Memorial Amateur Champion.”
