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.

Flight leaders — still played

The flights still play.

Every flight still crowns its winner, exactly as before — they're just no longer the headline. One even field up top; the flights running quietly underneath.

Tees

We meet your game.

Your tee is fixed for both rounds — tees do not move during the event.

The Bust-Out Rule

Your tee is set. The field stays honest.

Honest rounds clear without a word.

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.

At the bay

Enter the code. Finish the hole.

• On course selection, enter the bay code above — not your Full Swing Compete registration.
• The handicap box at the bay is optional — nothing you type there reaches your Back Nine score; your net is taken from your registration.
• Rough hole or tech trouble? You can stop — but finish the hole out. An unfinished hole records no score, and there's no redo.
