About this tournament

3 Rivers Open 2024! This year we will be running it as a 2 day B-Tier for both Professionals & Amateurs.

This will be 3 rounds of play, we will have 3 pools as of now and they will be broken up as follows:
POOL A will include MPO, MP40, MA1
POOL B will include MP50, MP60, FPO
POOL C will include MA2, MA40 (pools C and D will be partially combined based on registration numbers to fill each Swinney Course if needed)
POOL D will include FA1, FA2, FA3, FA40, MA50, MA60, MA70, MA3 (pools C and D will be partially combined based on registration numbers to fill each Swinney Course if needed)

Ace funds are pool specific for Pool A & B, Pool C & D will be separate, so each course grouping has it's own ace fund. If an ace is not hit the $ will be donated to the Paul McBeth Foundation.

Each 50/50 CTP will be out during round 1 and round 2. For Pools A and B both East and West will have a hole to play for and Pool A will have one hole at Tillman for the chance to claim the CTP if you have paid in.
50/50 CTP must be marked with a distance written down to qualify (write down distance in Inches please). There will be a tape measure with each flag.
