FIELD MAKEUP:
- Each field is filled with exempt players (based on previous SDGA performance) and then open entries on a first come, first served basis starting March 16.
- Once the field limits are reached (30 for Senior Men (reached) / 30 for Masters (Men 65+) (reached)/ 15 for Senior Women (reached)), additional registrants will register for the LAST CHANCE Qualifier, which will also secure a spot on the waitlist in case a player already in the field withdraws.
- Those on the waitlist when entries close on July 2 can choose to participate in the LAST CHANCE Qualifier for the final spots in each field. The LAST CHANCE Qualifier will be held on Thursday, July 10 at Rocky Run GC in the Dell Rapids. Those who do not qualify will only pay the $40 qualifying fee.
POD PLAY: The first three matches will be played in PODS of four players, with each player playing three matches against the other players in the POD. The best record in each pod advances to bracket match play in each division.
NEW!! SENIOR WOMEN: To create more competitive playing opportunities, ALL 16 players will advance to bracket match play after POD play. The POD winners and runners-up will play for the Championship. 3rd and 4th place finishers in the POD will play in the Silver bracket.
