Welcome to the 2019 Southeastern Conference Men’s Golf Tournament!

I speak for the Southeastern Conference and the Sea Island Golf Club when I say it is an honor to have you back with us for another extraordinary week of golf.

At the end of this week, we will have played 54-rounds of stroke play and three rounds of match play among fourteen men’s golf teams representing some of the best universities in the nation. The excitement built around this event is due to the talent, relationships and support from our student-athletes, coaches and fans. I believe we are about to experience a memorable tournament.

I want to say thank you to our administrators and those involved with team operations for the many hours you dedicate throughout the year to provide the best care to your student-athletes and team. Also, Sea Island Golf Club thank you for your continued support of Southeastern Conference golf.

Throughout the week, if you notice anything that may be improved, or if you have any concerns, please communicate it to the appropriate SEC staff member, as identified in this manual.

Best of luck to each of you as we finish up regular season competition. Let’s have a safe and enjoyable time on the course as we compete for the SEC championship title. Sincerely,

Greg Sankey Charlie Hussey Commissioner Tournament Director

2019 April 23-28, 2019 at the Sea Island Golf Club in St. Simons Island, Georgia 2020 April 21-26, 2020 at the Sea Island Golf Club in St. Simons Island, Georgia

Dress Code: Contestants must wear uniforms of the same color during competition and practice. Walking or Bermuda shorts are permitted, provided they are team shorts and are of the same color. Slacks or shorts may be worn at the individual’s discretion, provided they are of the same color and are considered the team uniform. If a student-athlete wears headgear during competition, it must display only an institutional, conference or NCAA logo, or no logo. If there is no logo, a coach’s or team member’s headgear must be of an institutional color. A manufacturer’s logo may appear on the side or back of the item as long as it conforms to NCAA Bylaw 12.5.5. Team members are not required to wear the same headgear.

In the best interest of intercollegiate golf and the championships, participants must wear appropriate golf attire at the tournament site. All participants and coaches should have their shirts tucked in while on the golf course for practice and competition rounds. [Reference: Bylaw 12.5.4 in the NCAA Division I Manual.]

Entries, Substitutions: Each team may enter five players. Prior to a round (stroke or match play), a team may substitute a sixth player for any member of the team provided that:

1. The Rules Committee is notified of the substitution at least 10 minutes prior to that team member’sstarting time. When a team has substituted a sixth player, the substitution becomes final 10 minutes prior to that team member’s starting time and no further changes may be made by the team for that round. However, prior to the 10-minute mark, the team may withdraw the substitution by notifying the Rules Committee and may substitute for another player as provided above. The team member that was substituted for shall become the sixth player and the team is limited to that player if the team wishes to substitute a player prior to any subsequent Championship round. [Adopted 3/13/19]

2. The sixth player is an otherwise eligible member of the institution’s team.

Unless a team chooses to substitute a sixth player prior to a match play draw, the team’s top five players that played in the previous round shall be used for the draw.

Equipment: Distance Measuring Devices In this competition, a player may use a device to measure distance only. However, if, during a stipulated round, a player uses a function to measure other conditions that might affect his play (e.g., gradient, wind-speed, temperature, etc.); the player is in breach of Rule 14-3.

Portable Electronic Devices The use of portable electronic devices with earphones or the like is prohibited on the competition course during any round of the Championship, including the Practice Round. Violation of this policy will result in the following penalties: (First Offense) player receives a warning; (Second Offense) two-stroke penalty assessed during opening round of the championship; (Third Offense) disqualification from championship.

Softspikes For the practice round and competition rounds, all players must wear soft spikes. Violations of this rule will result in the normal NCAA applied penalty, two strokes per hole with a four-stroke maximum penalty.

Format: The championship will consist of 54-holes of stroke play, followed by match play amongst the top eight finishing teams in stroke play.

Day 1 - 18 holes of stroke play Day 2 - 18 holes of stroke play Day 3 - 18 holes of stroke play Day 4 - Four morning matches | Two afternoon matches Day 5 - Championship match

The individual medalist and runner-up will be awarded based on stroke-play competition. The team championship will be awarded to the match-play winner. [Revised: 12/15/15; Revised: 6/3/16; Revised: 12/12/17; Revised: 8/7/18]

For match play, the top eight teams (see “Tiebreaker Policy” below if necessary) will be placed into a bracket with the No. 1 seed playing the No. 8 seed, the No. 2 seed playing the No. 7 seed, the No. 3 seed playing the No. 6 seed and the No. 4 seed playing the No. 5 seed in match play. A total of five points will be available with one point being awarded for each individual match. A stipulated round will be extended to as many holes as necessary to determine a match winner. Winning teams will advance to the semifinals and subsequently the finals. The first team to win three points within the team match will advance, or in the case of the final match be declared the Conference champion. Once a team has won three individual matches, any remaining individual matches will be halted at that point with the individual match recorded as it currently stood. Match play lineups will be determined using the same method employed at the Presidents Cup matches.

The higher-seeded team (as determined through the 54-hole stroke-play portion), “Team 1”, will have the first choice of putting a player on the board for Match #1. The opposing team, “Team 2”, will then name its player for Match #1.

Team 2 will then name its player for Match #2, and Team 1 will name its player for Match #2. The process will continue in an “S” curve until the players for all five matches are named. However, Team 1 may defer in the selection process and permit Team 2 to begin the overall selection process.

Pairings for the quarterfinals will be determined following the completion of the 54-hole stroke-play competition and the crowning of the individual champion and runner-up. Pairings for the team semifinals and finals will be determined following the completion of the previous match play round.

Ties for pairing positions will be broken according to the non-sudden-death tiebreaking procedures outlined below.

The Rules committee will do everything possible to complete 54 holes of stroke play and each match of the championship. However, the committee reserves the right to modify pairings for weather. See “Inclement Weather” below.
