20th ANNUAL MOTOR CITY OPEN
18 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP BERTHS to give away.
Metro Detroit Championship Series Finals
Berths will only be awarded to divisions that have at least THREE people.

2 Rounds of 18. Skipping the field holes and hole 22, but play 16 to 17 basket. Short tee pad would be the tee pad for 17.

First PAID 45 get a additional disc in their players pack.

This is a Pro/AM B Tier PDGA event.
We will be adding $750 + to the Pro divisions.

Layouts:

Open and AM1 - Long/Long
MA40+, AM2 - Long/Short
ALL others - Short/Short

EVERYONE will play 24 from the short pad.

Based on the registered players, we will do our best to make all of the groups divisional. In some cases, we may have to mix divisions within groups. We will only do this when divisions have odd numbers.

To help address the sandbagging issues at the Michigan State Championships, a motion was made and the Motion was passed:
a. For the Am2/Am3 (including the women) divisions in Featured Events, if there is a player that takes 1st or 2nd place and that player has never had a PDGA membership the Featured Event will deduct from that player’s payouts $35 to cover the cost of buying them a PDGA membership.
b. The remaining $10 was initially paid by the player at entry.
c. The last missing $5 is because the MDGO is an Affiliate Club.
d. Non-current PDGA members do not apply.
e. The MDGO will reimburse $17 to the FE to help cover any loss.
f. It is HEAVILY stressed that this needs to be advertised so the player base is aware of this prior to the event.

This was passed to address the issue of players not having player ratings. Even if they are not current, the TD does get a file from the PDGA that includes the player's rating. less
