DEADLINE:  The deadline has been extended until 11:59 pm, Monday, June 17.

FORMAT:
NEW!!!  All players will play in a stroke play qualifying on Day 1 (Monday, June 24) to determine the flighting. After the stroke play qualifying, the Championship Flight may play a longer course than the remainder of the field.

The field is limited to the first 47 players to enter plus the defending champion (Leigh Klasse).

Flights:
Flights will be determined based on scores from the stroke play qualifying.  Flights will be comprised of four (4) players with as many flights as necessary in order to accommodate all players.  In the event of a tie for the final position within a flight, a scorecard playoff will be used following the recommended procedure of the USGA found in the Official Guide to the Rules of Golf.  The last flight or two may be played at Net (using handicaps) based on the difference in Handicap Indices of the players within the flight.  All players will play at least two rounds (stroke play qualifying plus a match within their flight).  There is not a Consolation bracket.
