Classic pairings are now available.

2016 Fedex Finals

• Start time for both days is an 8:00 SHOTGUN START

• Cowan Creek has given CTGA the entire course both mornings so we’ll be starting every group on holes 1 thru 17.  It’s important that we complete our tournament by 12:30 as they have a member shotgun event starting at 1:00.  Please work hard to ensure your foursome completes play in 4:30 or less.

• Pace of Play will be enforced this tournament.  If your foursome gets more than a hole behind the group in front, makes no effort to close the gap in reasonable time, and it’s obvious that you are causing excessive delays to the foursomes behind you, all players in your foursome will be penalized for Excessive Slow Play.

• Cowan Creek has strongly requested that all players MUST KEEP THEIR GOLF BAGS ON A CART.  A player can walk, but cannot use a pull cart or carry his/her bag.  CTGA is obligated to comply with this policy….so any player who might decide to pull his/her bag off the cart once on the course will be disqualified.  Please comply!!!!
• Our post-play refreshments will not include beer this year, so if you want beer, you can bring your own cooler.

• We will be sending out our PAY ONLINE information later tonight and are encouraging all players to pre-pay before Saturday to avoid a long line after play.  This is optional, but we encourage it.

• We will accept Classic Teams until 7:30 Saturday morning, so if you know you want to be on one or two Teams, please let us know at your earliest convenience.
