DETAILS
Timberlake Men's Golf Association Championship Series - 2024
The Timberlake Championship Series (TCS) will be played over three weeks - Sept. 15, 22, 29, with Oct.6 being a rain date if needed).
Everyone starts the TCS with zero points and then earns points each week according to where they finish in their flight. A player will recieve 10 points for each player he finishes ahead of (more +) in his flight. These points will accumulate each week and the player with the most points in each flight after 3 weeks will be the flight winner for the TCS.
All ties will split points and prize money except ties for flight champion. Ties for flight champion will be settled by an 18 hole playoff the following week (most plus wins)
Details for the Timberlake Championship Series (TCS)
Eligibility: a player must have played at least 6 rounds during the regular season (between Oct. 1, 2024 and Sept 9, 2025). Anyone not eligible for the TCS can still play during the 3 weeks of the TCS, if space is available, and be eligible for the weekly prizes (see below).
Points needed: Each players points needed will be calculated each week just like during the regular season - average of the last six rounds, adjusted if necessary by the sandbagger rule.
Flights: The TCS will be flighted just like the regular season (A, B, & R flights) except a player will stay in the flight in which he started the tournament regardless what his points change to for subsequent weeks. The A and B flights will be determined by sorting all players in the field (except for red tee players) by their points needed and then splitting them in half: top half = A flight; bottom half = B flight.
Anyone qualified may play in as many of the weeks as they want - there will be no entry fee other than the weekly fee of $12. This fee includes the weekly contest, closest to the pins, and the TCS entry. Anyone who is eligible and plays in the first week is guaranteed a spot in the remaining weeks. Anyone who does not play in the first week can play in the remaining weeks if places are available - prioritized by number of rounds played during the year.
Rain Policy: If the whole flight (A, B, or R) has completed at least 14 holes the round will be considered complete and will be scored based on the holes everyone has completed using our usual prorated system for rain. If we are rained out before everyone in a flight has completed 14 holes the entire round for that flight will be replayed the following week and no prize money or points will be awarded. Closest to the pins will be awarded as they stand when play is stopped as long as the whole field has completed the hole. Any hole in one made prior to the round being called will be honored.
Playing groups: For the first week groupings will be from least to most Timbercup points earned YTD by flight. For weeks 2 and 3 the groupings will be by flight from least to most TCS points earned in prior weeks.
All of our regular weekly local rules will apply as usual. Breach of any of these rules will result in zero (0) points for the hole on which the breach occurred.
Prize money will ultimately be determined by how many players are in each flight. Each flight winner will also receive a trophy.
Payout for TCS per flight (projected based on 12 players in the flight, if there are fewer players in the flight the payout will be reduced):
1st = $70 + trophy; 2nd = $60; 3rd = $50; 4th = $40; 5th = $30
There will also be weekly prize money for each flight again based on # of players in the flight. In addition there will be the regular closest to the pin competition.

Timberlake Champion Golfer of the year:
Timbercup Points earned during the TCS will also accumulate towards the year long Timberlake Champion Golfer of the Year points (Timbercup points). The Timbercup points earned will be added to everyone's Timbercup points that they had earned prior to the TCS. The player with the most Timbercup points after the TCS will be the Timberlake Champion Golfer of the Year and receive the Timbercup trophy
Assignment of Timbercup Points during the TCS (Not to be confused with TCS points)
In addition to the usual Timbercup points assigned each week additional bonus points will be awarded as follows: Flight winner 70 pts, 2nd place 50 pts, 3rd place 40 pts, 4th place 30 pts, 5th place 20 pts and 6th place 10 pts. These points will accumulate only towards the Timberlake Champion golfer of the year award (The Timbercup Trophy) and are separate from the TCS points.
Should the Timbercup points be tied - 18 hole tie breaker the following week.
After each week the TCS points and Timbercup points will be posted so you can determine your position in each.
