Leaderboard

Everyone 18 and up plays together — any tee, any handicap. One board, scored net, and anyone can win.

The Bridge

One field. One even fight.

Everyone plays together — one board, scored net by the Bridge, so you’re measured against the field and not against the back tees. The Bridge gives newer players strokes so it’s a fair fight, then the best round wins. You don’t have to be the lowest handicap in the room to win the Crown — the player on top is the Bridge Champion.

The one-field board is the headline. You don’t have to win your flight to take the Crown — the Bridge Champion is whoever finishes on top of the whole field.

The Mulligan Rule — read it twice

Round 1 — unlimited mulligans, but every mulligan is +1 stroke on your Round 1 score. Take as many as you want; there is no free help.

Round 2 — no mulligans at all. They are switched off in the sim. What you hit is what you score.

Your mulligans used show on the leaderboard. In a winning position, your Round 1 mulligans are verified against a phone-recorded sim replay before a prize locks.

The Bust-Out Rule

Your tee is set. The field stays honest.

Why it’s fair

The ground is level.

One board only works if the fight is fair. The Bridge gives newer players strokes, so a beginner and a pro are judged on the same ground. The truest round wins — not the lowest number.

When two players tie — the honesty ladder

  1. The honest number — whoever’s own number told the truth about their game.
  2. Back nine — the lower score over holes 10 through 18.
  3. Hole by hole, backward from 18 — the first hole where one player is lower.

Honesty is part of how you win here.

  • On course selection, enter the bay code above — not your Full Swing Compete registration.
  • Enter your indoor handicap when prompted, or your score won't post correctly.
  • Rough hole or tech trouble? You can stop — but finish the hole out. An unfinished hole records no score, and there's no redo.
