Nate McMurray 7d Tommy there is no full Short layout at this time only shorts available are carried over from the holes from the old layout, current holes 5, 6, 16, 17
Nate Heinold 7d The park is working to get the rest of the shorts ready, and they will be ready for the fall.
Wyatt Wood Do y'all have a date selected for when you are able to schedule practice rounds? Jun 2
Nate Heinold Jun 2
Not yet, they will come later this Summer, this is the most up to date information on practice round ... show more ›
Joshua Barnes Will we be allowed a caddy? May 29
Nate Heinold May 29 Yes
Joshua Barnes May 29 do we have to get them a ticket as well?
Nate Heinold May 29 To spectate at the DGPT courses yes, but to spectate for AM side rounds, no
Dustin Phipps Because there are 25 on the waitlist for MA1 it won’t allow me to sing up for waitlist. Is 25 the max quantity for the waitlist? May 29
Nate Heinold May 29 I have changed the waitlist capacity to 28
Andrew T Zuern i didn't see the option for purchasing spectator tickets during my registration. Is this because I'm waitlisted? May 28
Nate Heinold May 28 Yes, once you are promoted into the event, you will have that option.
Cade Hobbs Any chance ma1/ma2 gets opened up if other divisions don’t fill? May 28
Nate Heinold May 28 MA1/MA2 are not playing the same courses as any other divisions, so other divisions not filling won't affect MA1/MA2. Unfortunately the answer to your question is no.
Brad Baker What tee pads will MA2 be playing on? May 25
Nate Heinold May 26 Caddie guides will be released early this summer
Jay N Is the long drive competition on Saturday open to non-competitors? May 24
Nate Heinold May 24 Yes
charlie ennis I’ve already signed up for ma3. Can I get on the waitlist for ma2 without paying an extra 100? If so please advise how May 23
Nate Heinold May 24 No, you would have to pay the full fee to get on the wait-list.
David Langis May 26
to build off this question. I pre-registered at MA3; however, had an abnormally strong day yesterday ... show more ›
Nate Heinold May 26 You will get bumped up
Allen poe Already got my AirBNB, can’t wait for a fun weekend! May 22
Chris McGrath Will there be a wide option for the shoes? I love my wides that came with the Worlds Gold Pass... May 21

Nate Heinold May 21 We cannot guarantee wide options but we will have some wide inventory available!
Chris McGrath May 24 What's the best way to have a chance at the wides?
Nate Heinold May 24 Show up early to check in
Chris Walton If a player's rating forces them out of a division that they are registered for, do they automatically get a spot in the higher division, or would they bumped down to the waitlist for that new division? May 21
Nate Heinold May 21 We would automatically move them up!
Bennett Hightower May 21 Even if the division they're moving up to is full? ex. move from ma3 to ma2 with 81 people? 1 over the limit
Nate Heinold May 21 Yes we build in extra spots for situations like this. We have a lot of experience with this from running Ledgestone so we generally know the math on what we need to hold back.
Benjamin Rahe Any recommendations on local campsites? May 21
Donald Harrison May 21 Don’s Cab-Inns Campground near Roanoke.
Wesley Jones During registration, I could only select one discounted ticket. I bought my other two tickets through eventbrite. Is that correct that we can only get one discounted ticket? May 20
Nate Heinold May 21 That is correct
Paul Bailey After registering, will we be able to update our registration to select/change our discount admission spectator tickets? Or does that have be chosen at registration time tonight? May 20
Nate Heinold May 20 You can edit your registration later to add or edit your discounted tickets.
JJ Schall Is there an option for a discounted Gold ticket for the Tour Championship? May 20
Zackary Whitt Do we know what model the shoe is. I got some screwed up feet lol. May 20
Nate Heinold May 20 We will have a couple different options. Just fill in your shoe size during registration, we should have enough inventory for you to change it at check-in if need be once you see the exact model.
Dustin Schneider I don’t need any more discs and I am trying to keep the cost low and don’t want to sponsor a hole. The page won’t let me check out with out on or the other. Will there be a time where that won’t be needed to be in the event? May 20
Tyler Warnalis Will the Ivy Hill course be the Pro layout or the Spectator layout from last year’s Worlds? May 20
Nate Heinold May 20 Pro layout, same course that will be used for DGPT Tour Championship
Nate Heinold Course Schedule Update: After evaluating the new layout for New London, FA1 has been added to Pool B and will play New London Tech (FPO layout) during this event. May 19
Nate Heinold AM registration opens tomorrow night at 7PM eastern! Set your calendars! May 19
Brian Sennett Will carts be available for the rounds at Ivy Hill? May 8
Connor Miller Planning trip, first time for all of this.
When will amateurs be allowed to practice the courses (NLT/IH)? Will we have to get on a list or is it just show up? All week? Even Thursday? Apr 21

Connor Miller Apr 23 If I come I’ll want to have one practice round on each course for a serious tournament. Please let us know how we can do that, ASAP.
Nate Heinold Apr 23
Connor, please see my above comment, more information will be posted closer to the event for practic ... show more ›
Nate Heinold Apr 24 Practice time information has been updated in the Event Description on DGS.
Andrew Kipps Will MA2 and MA1 be playing the same layouts? Thanks! Apr 21
Nate Heinold Apr 21 Caddie guides will be posted early this Summer.
Chris McGrath Will MA2 tee times come before MA1? Thanks. Apr 9
Nate Heinold Apr 9 Tee times will be announced the week of the event, we have not yet set the tee time order for this event.
David Davis If I am travelling with friends to the DGPT Championship, is there a way to get on the same card for the Amateur Challenge so we can play together? Apr 9
Nate Heinold Apr 9 Unfortunately that does not meet PDGA competition standards, so the answer would be no, sorry.
David Davis Apr 10 No worries, thanks for letting me know
Brook Johnson NONE of the women’s divisions get any of the premiere courses? Not even FA1???? Apr 8

Steve Galat Apr 14 FA1 is roughly MA3 when comparing ratings. TD sometimes has to make the controversial, but correct decisions.
Christopher Burns Apr 21
"Putting sub 900 rated players on a 9,000' course does not seem like we are setting things up for su ... show more ›
Brook Johnson May 19 Exactly what Christopher said. If your issue is “sub 900 rated players,” why is ma3 playing new London when the division does not allow players above 900 rated to compete in it???
Noah Ranck I see it says check in on Thursday at Ivy Hill, but nothing for check in on Friday. Would we just check in at our respective courses on Friday if we can not make it to check in on Thursday? Apr 7
Nate Heinold Apr 8 We will send you further details on where you can get your players pack closer to the event if you cannot check in on Thursday.
Donald Harrison What are LE pack purchasers? Apr 7

Michael Brown Does each Amateur play three rounds, one each day? Apr 7
Nate Heinold Apr 7 Yes
Peter Gutfeldt Will MA1 and MA2 be playing different layouts? Apr 6
Nate Heinold Apr 6 Layouts will be posted later this Spring
Peter Gutfeldt Apr 6
Can you say at this time whether they will be playing the same or differing layouts? Regardless of ... show more ›
Nate Heinold Apr 7 We do not have that information at this time, but if I had to guess, MA2 would play shorter layouts at Ivy Hill and New London.
Frederick Hefer
Are top cards of the AM events going to overlap heavily with tee times of Lead/Chase card in the tour event? I want to play in this am tournament but also would still like to spectate lead card. Don� ... show more ›
Apr 4
Nate Heinold Apr 4 Yes, there could be some conflicts if you are on the top card, but generally the AM courses should be finishing with time to spare to watch.
Andrew Kipps When will details on the discounted tickets for DGPT Championship be released? And will it include the full event VIP pass? Thanks! Apr 4
Nate Heinold Apr 4 You will be able to register for these tickets through AM registration for this event, while supplies last. We will have an option to purchase a discounted VIP ticket.
