Pin-Strokes on that Pin-Hole. Please keep things moving by stopping play once target score achieved and letting the other players play their balls.
-The player with the lowest score at a Pin-Hole takes the honor of playing first on the following Pin-Hole. The competitor with the second lowest score plays next and so on. If two or more competitors have the same score at a Pin-Hole, the play in the same order as the previous Pin-Hole.
-Scores are cumulative for all rounds including round 2 and/or finals !!
-Round 1- at the end of round 1 (4 /9 or more holes) the top 8 /12 players with the fewest strokes qualify for Final Round .
- Tie Break - In case of any ties to advance to next round ( including finals ) a single game(randomly picked ) will be play until one of the 2 ( or more ) players will reach the target score unless i decide to put both players in final .
-Final Round- Machine target scores will increase of 25% ( or difficult increase for the target scores to achieve ) . The top 8/12 players will play 3( or more ) holes split in 2/3 groups of 3/4.
Players will be grouped according to seed so the players in the lead will be playing the ones closest to catching them. Remember that scores are cumulative !
