pistol_75 wrote: » Pro Am format across 3 courses. Each Pro & their partner play each course one day of the 3. Pro tournament as normal for Pro's Fourball betterball for team (Pro + Am) There is a cut after 3 days I think it is roughly the top 30/40 teams along with all pro's who's individual score has made the cut. The main tournament is still a pro tournament with the sideline of a pro am feel. It would be a biggie in terms of prize money etc for the Pro's. Anything else?
