• A: On the day of registration, you’ll need to make sure you have the following:

    A handicap index calculated by the USGA and distributed through the Allied Golf Associations. All of the AGAs use the GHIN services except for Chicago District, Wisconsin, and Indiana. Your handicap ID can be found on your handicap card or from your golf club. Your ID also may be referred to as a GHIN #, CDGA #, WSGA #, IGA #, Grint #, MyScorecard #, US Handicap #, GolfNet #, or CCID #. If you use Golf Net or US Handicap, your online club must be compliant with the USGA. This can be found in your profile by clicking on the hyperlinked online club name. For our Canadian friends who cannot get a verified HC Index via the USGA, you are still eligible to play and win prizes if you have a verified Handicap index through a Canadian Golf Association.

    Both your and your partner's information including cell phone, e-mail, DOB, and mailing address.

    This is an example of your GHIN membership card. Your GHIN number is on it. Please make sure you have the correct number!

  • A: If you cancel outside 30 days of your event, you will receive a full refund. Within 30 days it will be at our discretion based on if we can fill your spot from a team on the waitlist. If you cancel within 7 days you will NOT get a refund.

  • A: You cannot play in more than one qualifier. Even if you play with a different partner, the answer is still no. Even if you want to just play for fun, the answer is still No (even though we are flattered you want to spend more time with us)

  • A: Yes. You can replace your partner by emailing barstoolclassic@barstoolsports.com and making the request. THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP, ONLY TO QUALIFIERS. For the Championship, if your partner cannot make it, you can forfeit your spot or you can play as a single. NO EXCEPTIONS.

  • A: Yes. Please refer to the question above for details.

  • A: You can input your scores manually from your old association.

  • A: We will plan to have you play as a scratch, and handicap adjustments may be made at any time at the Commissioner's discretion.

  • A: Yes! You can play for fun. You’ll play as a scratch. Please note: you or your partner will not be eligible to participate in the Championship.

  • A: Scoring and handicaps will be done slightly differently this year. We are constantly seeking to make the field as level and as fair as possible, and to reward those who play the best relative to their true ability. So here is how handicaps will work this year.

    We are using each player’s current handicap index. We chose a day (secretly) within a few weeks of the qualifier and are basing every player’s handicap off his/her index on that day.

    We are adjusting the entire field off the lowest course handicap playing as 0. No one will be “giving back strokes” this year.

    We are taking 50% of every player’s course handicap.

    Two-person best ball, also known as four ball, stroke play. Each player plays his/her own ball, and your team score for each hole is the lowest net score of the two players.

    The top 4 teams from each qualifier will advance to the championship (Location and date TBD)

  • A: You may opt out of the prizes that will negate your amateur status.

  • A: A team's registration fee covers 18 holes of golf, food, Truly throughout the day, a tee gift, and more. If your team finishes in the top four, you’ll advance to the Championship. For the Championship, players will be responsible for their own travel & lodging.

  • A: Yes, all participants must be 21+ at the time of the tournament. All participants will be asked to show a valid ID upon on-site registration.

  • A: No, the venues hosting us are not equipped to handle spectators. Neither are we.

  • A: The general target is to play each course from around 6,600 yards for men, and 5,800 for women.

  • A: Ties will be determined by a scorecard playoff which will begin on hole 18 and go backwards (17, 16, 15, etc.) until winners are determined.

  • A: Nearly all our qualifiers will be an 8am or 9am shotgun start. Breakfast will be served. You can hit the driving range, and mingle with the barstool talent before you tee off.
