FORMAT

The Two-Person Veterans Cup Series Scramble - On each hole, both members of the team hit a tee shot from their designated tee. The team then selects one of the tee shots and marks the spot from which to play. Both players will play the next shot from within one club length (through the green) and once again select the shot and mark the spot from which to play. This procedure is repeated until the ball is holed. On the putting green, the shot must be played from within one putter-head length.

TIES
