ADGTour Points and Finals Information
For the ADGC, the points calculation will be performed after the first day of ADGC play (Rounds 1 and Round 2) so only the first two rounds will count towards points. Please note that the Doubles Event on Friday does not contribute to ADGTour points. All divisions except for Men's Open will then have their points tabled to determine divisional winners at the end of the first day of play.
In the Men's Open Division, following the tabling of points after the first day of play at the ADGC, the top 4 ADGTour players who are in attendance at the ADGC will be determined. The overall ADGTour Champion will be determined by which of the four players wins Round 3 of the ADGC. Note that these four players may or may not be grouped together for the 3rd round depending on event logistics on the day. Points ties for 4th best in attendance will be broken by playoff.
As a result, those in the Men's Open Division wanting to take a shot at the ADGTour Champion title must attend the ADGC in order to win. This is inline with the original ADGTour guidelines previously published, however in order to keep the ADGC event on schedule, a seperate ADGTour final will not be possible, which is the reason the 3rd ADGC round will be used as the ADGTour final.
Player Entry Costs
Both Days
- Men's Open - $100
- Women's/Men's Advanced/Masters/Recreational - $60

Increased fees for the Men's Open Division are directly utilised for the cash purse along with additional funds provided by event sponsors. Please note, players who cash and wish to retain PDGA ametuer status must decline cash prizes, however altnerative prizes will be offered for those players.
