ELENI PONTING BETTER BALL TOURNAMENT

TUESDAY, AUGUST 3, 2021

The ever-popular Eleni Ponting Better Ball tournament will be held August 3, 2021. It is, as you may remember, a ‘better ball’ format.

"Better ball" is a name for a golf competition format in which two golfers play as a team, but each plays her own ball throughout. On each hole, the two golfers on a team compare scores. The lower of the two NET scores - the better ball - counts as the team's score. 

As with any of our matches/tournaments, you need to have your most recent handicap and figure out your strokes/hole. You should all know by now how to figure out your ‘dots’/hole based on your current handicap. Filling your cards out the night before is a good idea to relieve any pre-game angst.

The scorecard for this event is a team card and that is what should be handed in. 

The cost is $2.00/person.

Money and cards will be handled as they were for the Bulger.

Sign up will be via the Tuesday on-line Google document, modified to handle the better ball match. You must have a partner to sign up. 

Should you not wish to participate, just play your usual Tuesday game.



...REALLY????..THIS IS GOLF??!!
