Women will play the red tees.

Tie Breakers for Flights & Flight Positions
A tie for any of the overall 1st places of flights on Sunday will have a one hole playoff on Meadows #1 and will continue on the same hole until a winner is determined. Any players tied for flight positions 2-6 will be determined by the most recent 9 hole score. If there is still a tie, the last 6 hole totals are compared, then the last 3 then the last hole until a winner can be determined.
If still tied, we will use the number of birdies made.
