2024 Putting Tour
6 double weekends spanning across Aotearoa for a total of 12 events, each consisting of up to 4 rounds of 18 holes, with the lowest total score taking out first place.
ALL SKILLS AND AGES ARE INVITED and whether you lead the pack or trail at the back, you'll be sure to enjoy yourself in the youth, amateur or the pro category.
Amateur players compete in 2 rounds, whereas pro will be challenged to 4 rounds.
Ties for the event are resolved with "sudden death" - tied players play face-to-face to putt the lowest score on a hole until the person with the lowest stroke count is left.
Points
Players are awarded points based on their rank at the end of each event. The year's total is calculated on the best (most points) 8 events to provide a little leeway skip some of the events (because you know, minigolf for life, but life happens).
Points are distributed between players before any tie-breaks. Players sharing the same position take the average of the tied ranks - e.g. if two people finish 1st equal, each will receive half of 1st (50) and 2nd rank points (40) combined: 45 points (half of 50+40)
Rank | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th | 7th | 8th | 9th | 10th | 11th - 15th | 16th+ |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Points | 50 | 40 | 34 | 28 | 25 | 22 | 19 | 16 | 13 | 10 | 7 | 5 |
Rules
- Tee-off within the marked areas. If unmarked, tee-off is at maximum, one club shaft length from the start of each hole
- The ball can be relocated 20cm away from walls and obstacles, as long as this doesn't give line of sight to the hole if it wasn't there before.
- If the ball leaves the green, return it to the point where it left and re-position using the rule above (no penalty shot awarded)
Rules will be reiterated during the briefing before the start of play, along with any exceptions due to course conditions or otherwise. The complete New Zealand Minigolf Federation rules are available here.
