2009 Cape Cod Classic is in the Books

The 2009 Cape Cod Classic finished in dramatic fashion on Sunday with the defending champion Gorse Gods holding on for a 10 to 8 victory. Captain Chuck Nally noted that the 2009 tournament is the closest contest in years. "Any 1 match could have changed the entire outcome", he said. "Congratulations to the Sandbaggers for their courageous effort".

The Sandbaggers held the overnight lead Saturday after winning 3 matches and halving another for a 3 1/2 to 2 1/2 advantage. The Gorse Gods got the lead back on Sunday morning by winning 3 matches and halving 2 more of the 6 individual morning contests. They held on with 3 victories and a half on the back nine for the slim 10 to 8 victory.

Special thanks to Seth Shulam for all his efforts organizing the tournament and making the 2009 CCC another awesome weekend.

The Cape Cod Classic moves to new format

This year the CCC moves to an individual format leaving the much loved, but tired Ryder Cup format behind.

Flights

There will be three Flights. "The Champions Flight", "The PGA Flight", and "The NationWide Flight"
Each Flight will have four players
The flights will be established by handicap with the low four handicap players in one flight, the middle four handicappers in a second flight and the high four handicappers in a third flight
The goal is to win your flight, and prizes will be awarded to the winners of each flight.

Matches

The golf matches will remain the same as in prior years. On Saturday morning we will play a 2-man, four-ball match.
Saturday Afternoon will be a 2-man, scramble match
Sunday will feature 3, 6-hole individual matches.

Parings

Parings for the Saturday team matches will be determined by an A/B blind draw.
The low 6 handicappers will be designated "A Players" and placed into one hat. The high 6 handicappers will be "B Players" and placed into a second hat.
An A player and a B player will be pulled at random to form a team.
No team can have 2 players from the same flight. If any team consists of two players from the same team we will re-draw
Opponents are determined by the total team handicap. The two teams with the lowest team handicap will play against each other, then the next two, and then the last two.
On Sunday each flight will play as a foursome

Points

Players earn a point for each match they win and 1/2 point for each match that is halved.
The maximum amount of points that can be earned by each player is 5

Winning your flight

The player with the most points in his flight wins.
If there is a tie, the tie-breaker is the individual match between the two players.
If there is still a tie we go to a putt off!
A cash prize will be awarded to the winner of each flight

Cash Pool

As in previous years we will have a cash pool for each day.
This will be very much the same as in prior years.
Details for this will be provided on the day of the tournament
