PDGA 5.03 Compliance:
It is the event’s responsibility to provide, at minimum, a specific course rules sheet to every player so they can play the course correctly and as intended. For the Texas State Championships, the Tournament Director will provide these rules via the PDGA Digital Scorecard and a comprehensive digital Player Guide.

Official Versioning & Distribution Notice:
To ensure competitive integrity and clear communication, please note the following:
- The Final Word: While preliminary information may be shared for travel planning, the Official Player Guide will be distributed via email and available under documents to all registered players once the courses are in their final tournament format.

- Avoid Confusion: We have noted in the past that early "draft" versions or multiple iterations found on social media have caused confusion regarding specific OB lines and mandatories.

- Rule of Record: Only the rules listed in the Final Version (stamped with the current year and final revision date) and the PDGA Digital Scorecard during your active round shall be considered official.

Practice with Purpose: Players are encouraged to refer only to the official guide during practice days (March 25th–26th) to ensure they are practicing the correct lines and rules as they will be enforced during the championships.

Mandatories & OB: Several hazard areas have been redefined to better accommodate the scale of an A-Tier event. These are clearly marked in the final guide and will be physically flagged during practice days.

PDGA 1.05 - It is the sole responsibility of the player to know the course rules, be at their starting hole, and be ready to play in time for the start of their round.

COURSE WILL BE CLOSED DURING PLAY: FLY ZONE will be set up with nets and baskets and please review the pictures for warm up areas in each park.
