Event Rules & Format

How the SSL Open 2026 worked β€” preserved for historical reference and future events.

Counted for SSL Season Score

The SSL Open was a regular league round on Saturday, September 19, 2026. Each player's round counted toward their Summer Swing League season score under the same scoring rules as any other league event (top-5 rounds, participation points, etc.).

The Only Open-Specific Twists

Everything else is standard SSL. The only special rules for the Open are:

  • Modes (Normal / Hard / God) β€” pick your difficulty and earn bonus points for top-3 finishes
  • Double Down (optional gamble) β€” risk your Open bonus to double it

One Leaderboard for Everyone

All players are ranked together on a single leaderboard by net score (your gross score minus your handicap). It doesn't matter if you picked Normal, Hard, or God β€” everyone competes on the same board.

Groups will be mixed on purpose. You'll be playing alongside people who chose different modes.

Pick Your Mode on the First Tee (Locked In)

Before you tee off, you must declare your mode out loud to your group: Normal, Hard, or God. Once you declare, that choice is locked for the entire round β€” no switching.

Each mode has its own personal rules (mulligans, gimmes, curses). If you finish in the top 3 overall on the leaderboard, you earn an Open finish bonus added to your season score β€” higher modes pay bigger bonuses.

⚑ Curse Constraints (Hard & God)

To keep curses challenging and fair:

  • One-club holes must not be par 3s. Using one club on a short hole is too easy. Players declare which par 4 or par 5 hole(s) they'll use one club on at the first tee.
  • No-driver restriction (God mode) must be a par 5. Some players don't use driver on shorter holes anyway, so the restriction forces the challenge on the longest holes where driver matters most.

The Three Modes

Each mode has different personal rules and different Open finish bonuses for the top 3 finishers. Here's what you're signing up for:

Normal mode

🏌️ Normal

Open finish bonus:
+5 / +3 / +1
Mulligan:1 per 9 holes
Gimme ≀18":1
Curses:None
Hard mode

⚑ Hard

Open finish bonus:
+10 / +6 / +2
Mulligan:0
Gimme ≀18":0
Curse:1 one-club hole per nine (not par 3s; announced first tee)
God mode

πŸ‘‘ God

Open finish bonus:
+25 / +12 / +6
Mulligan:0
Gimme ≀18":0
Curses:3 one-club holes (not par 3s) + no driver on 1 par 5

Double Down (Optional Gamble)

Declare at the turn β€” after hole 9

At the turn (after you finish hole 9), you can optionally declare "Double Down" out loud to your group. This is a gamble on your back 9 performance:

βœ… If you succeed:

Your net back 9 must be strictly better (lower score) than your net front 9.

If you finish top 3 overall, your Open finish bonus is doubled with no cap.

❌ If you fail:

Your net back 9 is worse or tied with your net front 9.

You get 0 Open finish bonus, even if you finish top 3. You're still eligible for Closest-to-Pin and Incident awards.

Double Down is all-or-nothing. Bet wisely.

Side Prizes

These awards are field-wide β€” everyone is eligible regardless of tier:

🎯
Closest-to-Pin
Best shot on a designated par 3
πŸ’€
Incident Award
For the most memorable on-course moment

Note: No fairness floor bonuses. No separate tier leaderboards.

Season Score Impact

Each Open round counted toward SSL season scores exactly like any other league round. Normal SSL scoring rules applied (top-5 rounds, participation points, etc.). See the full SSL rules.

Open finish bonuses: Top 3 finishers earned an Open finish bonus based on their mode (+5/3/1 for Normal, +10/6/2 for Hard, +25/12/6 for God), added to their season score on top of the normal points earned for playing the round.

Successful Double Down declarations doubled the finish bonus with no cap. Failed Double Down attempts earned 0 Open finish bonus (but kept normal round points).
