Year-Long Personal Best (PB) Competition

The PB Competition is an optional year-long contest – participation is voluntary. The cost is $20 per category (Net and Gross). It applies to every tournament round at Santa Teresa during the calendar year (except those rounds whose format is Match Play).

Starting when you enter the contest, we will track the lowest score you make on each hole, over the course of the calendar year. The sum of the lowest score on each hole will be your PB score for the year.

Starting in 2009, the Net and Gross competitions will be flighted, in an effort to increase participation.  There will be 3 Net flights and 3 Gross flights, according to the following conditions:

• Flight A: Indexes 8.9 and below
• Flight B: Indexes between 9.0 and 15.9, inclusive
• Flight C: Indexes 16.0 and above

Because a player's index changes during the year, for the purposes of flighting, we'll use the player's index for the initial month of his competition.  For example, if a player signs up prior to the January tournament, his flight will be determined by his January index.  If a player signs up between the April and May tournaments, his May index will determine his flight.  Note: Once a player's flight has been determined, it will not change during the year, regardless of future index changes.

Here's how it works:

• One-time entry fee is $20 per category (Net and/or Gross).
• Net hole scores will be based on the course handicap effective the day of the tournament.
• We will post the results throughout the year, so you can see how your PB score(s) rank against the field.
• Prizes will be paid to approximately 10% of each category flight.
• Entry is not retroactive; ie we only count PB scores made after you enter the competition.

The earlier you sign up, the more rounds will count towards your PB.
