Tournament Rules:

1. Each player or team is responsible for the correct scoring of their score card. Once a score card is signed and turned in, it will be official. 

2. If a higher score is entered than actual, it will stand. If a lower score is entered than actual, it will result in disqualification.

3. The gross score must be individually identifiable by player or the team will be disqualified.

4. When the total number of applications for an event exceeds the limit approved by the tournament's Golf Professional, applications will be drawn on a random basis - club by club.

5.  In the interest of speeding up play, pick up when you are out of the hole. Players found guilty of slow play will be advised to catch up to the remainder of the field or may be penalized by loss of stroke or hole.

6. Handicap divisions in tournaments are based on handicap distribution of the tournament field. Maximum allowable handicap for all tournaments is 32. Member's handicap may not exceed 36, at her own club.

7. The WHDGA has adopted the local rule allowing the use of distance measuring devices (e.g., optical or GPS. However, the use of devices that gauge or measure other conditions that might affect a player's play (e.g., wind and gradient) is not permitted.
