No pre-registration. Register on-site on day of tournament.

A par score or objective target (e.g., "earn an extra ball") will be posted on each machine in the tournament. Players record a score on each pingolf hole (machine) based on the number of balls it takes to achieve this par score or target.

Main Finals
All players are eligible (including kids)
All players scores start at zero in each round of the finals (i.e., scores don't carry over from prelims, and they don't carry over from playoff round 1 to playoff round 2)

Under 16 participants in prelims = 4 finalists; top 2 get cash prizes
16 to 40 participants in prelims = 8 finalists; top 4 get cash prizes
41+ participants in prelims = 16 finalists; top 8 get cash prizes

Players will be grouped per seed (e.g., 1-4-5-8 + 2-3-6-7 for 8 finalists)

3 pingolf games per round

Before finals start, par targets can be adjusted at the discretion of the tournament director

Top seed picks game or play order
Next seed picks game if available, or play order from remaining spots
Etc.

After 3 games, 2 players with lowest pingolf score advance. In final round, pingolf score for the round determines final finishing position.

Tiebreakers as needed (to determine players that advance to the next round or when there is a prize/trophy difference) on a randomly selected machine. Top original seed picks play order.
