STARTING TIMES AND PAIRINGS: 

• Starting times and pairings will be e-mailed to players and posted online at scga.org one week in advance of the championship.  Round 2 pairings will be developed based upon Round 1 scores.
• Starting times will range from 8:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. each day.
• Players are encouraged to arrive at their assigned tee well in advance of their starting time, as the SCGA starter will have information to discuss and distribute to each player in the group. Furthermore, players arriving late will be penalized under Rule 5.3a of the Rules of Golf. For example, the 9:00 a.m. starting time is defined as 9:00:00, and players arriving after that time are considered late. Lead groups should plan to be at their assigned tee 10 minutes in advance of their starting time. Subsequent groups are encouraged to arrive in time to watch the group in front of them tee off.
