Thanks to all the players that came out today and played in beautiful ideal conditions, aside from the humidity. Congratulations to all of the division winners and the berths winners as well. If you won a berth you have until the August 26th to register for states. The berth winners are being turned in tonight.

Thanks to John Minicuci, Ken Mango, B Dub, Sam and Mike Cook. The help is truly needed beyond belief to help things run smoother for everyone one involved. If your every interested ple ... more

Thank you all for running a great event! Unfortunately i did not ace today lol

Shaun Adkins August 14, 2016 at 9:38pm

I think it was Brendan Andrews.

Chris Leo August 14, 2016 at 9:39pm

Thanks, fixed.

Mike Walker August 15, 2016 at 10:48am

Thanks Chris for a great tournament. Had a blast. Was nice to see a lot of new faces and that's good for the sport. Unfortunately we still have some old faces that don't know how to act in front of people and that's not good for the sport.

Shaun Adkins August 15, 2016 at 10:52am

No ****.....

Chris Leo Sticky August 10, 2016 at 4:15pm

Please check in at tournament central located near tee pad 3. When you check in you will be told what hole you are starting on, and be asked, if you haven't already told us, if you need a berth. If you do not check in with your spot will be forfeited, registration ends at 0900 EST.

Here are the amount of berths that will be awarded to each division. I essentially worked it out to be around 1 birth per four people in the division, with the remainder going to the largest division, MA2. Th ... more

All of the ladies in FPO have their berths.

Jessica Oleskie August 10, 2016 at 8:15pm

So FW3 means

Chris Leo August 11, 2016 at 7:07am

Thanks Shaun, that berth will be moved to MA2 then.

Jessica Oleskie August 12, 2016 at 12:19am

The reason I asked what FW3 is.. I don't see FW1.

Chris Leo August 12, 2016 at 6:42am

There isn't enough to make a division for The Advancded women, therefore they were not allocated a berth.

Chris Leo August 12, 2016 at 6:43am

FW3 is recreational women, or at least that's what I think the division code is.

Jessica Oleskie August 12, 2016 at 7:36am

So what you're trying to tell me is the last option I have to get my berth, what iv been waiting for. Is not an option bc other females didn't sign up. Like that is in our control. So Chris. When your only 2 am1 females post on your list that they need a berth, don't you think at a TD that is something you inform them prior to the tourney weekend.

Chris Leo August 12, 2016 at 7:42am

Jessica that is correct. We only award berths to a divison that qualifies for it. It's not fair to give a berth to a divison of two people. However with your rating you can play FA3 where a berth will be awarded.

Chris Leo August 12, 2016 at 7:43am

In order to have a divison you need at least 3 people, the pdga and others prefer 4. Unless you are a junior.

Jessica Oleskie August 12, 2016 at 7:46am

So in that case I understand your board is set. But you can move me up to FPO instead of giving away the berth to a male division. That is why I was playing this tourney

Chris Leo August 12, 2016 at 7:48am

I would be more then happy to move you to FPO, where you are now guaranteed a berth.

Jessica Oleskie August 12, 2016 at 8:00am

Thank you very much. I will notify Jay so she has an option as well.

John Minicuci August 12, 2016 at 8:12am

Oh by the way, Thank You Chris Leo for hosting another great MCCG event!

Hi Chris, please me me to FPO, as well. Ditto the conversation with Jess and thanks JJ for being so curious! see ya'll tomorrow.

I would like to know asap, as I plan on getting the board rest tomorrow, hence today being the last day for switches. I understand that doesn't work for you. Please let me know asap and if no one replaces your spot you will not get a refund per PDGA guidelines.

Matt Neal August 10, 2016 at 11:58pm

Can I take his spot?

Chris Leo August 11, 2016 at 7:08am

There is one person ahead of you on the wait list.

Pending it did not change, in the About this tournament tab it states 19th ANNUAL MOTOR CITY OPEN 2 Rounds of 22 Holes skipping 17 and 20. Layouts: Open and AM1 - Long/Long MAM,AM2,FA1 - Long/Short ALL others - Short/Short

Stephen Moore August 8, 2016 at 9:24pm

I saw that and didn't see a long pad on 24. That is why I asked.

Stephen Moore August 8, 2016 at 9:25pm

Mike I was thinking they might do that too or put a temp pad in near the old long placement

Mike Walker August 8, 2016 at 10:01pm

slide is still up..plan on the only remaining pad.

Jessica Oleskie August 8, 2016 at 10:44pm

I totally read it wrong!!! Ahhhahahaaaaa my apoligies i try to block out the lack of 24 long tee pad. One of the last mccg tourneys they put a temp pad up to the right of the hill where it flattens out- half way from the long to short.. makes it into a decent forehand or anny.

Ben Jackson August 8, 2016 at 11:13pm

Everyone will play from the short pad. The big blue hippio ate the long tee pad.

For the GVM we also skipped hole 22 and added the left mando on hole 20 as a replacement.
