2020 GASPAR INVITATIONAL SCHEDULE

June 2020

ALL PLAYERS MUST PAY BY WEDNESDAY, 6/10 AT MIDNIGHT.  THIS WILL BE AN OFFICIAL GASPAR INVITATIONAL.  POINTS GAME & SKINS WILL BE PLAYED.  PLAYERS WHO HAVE NOT PLAYED 2 GASPAR INVITATIONALS AND DO NOT YET HAVE THEIR OFFICIAL GASPAR QUOTA MAY PLAY IN THE SKINS AND CLOSEST TO THE PINS.  THE SCORING AND AWARDS WILL BE ON FACEBOOK LIVE IF WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ENTER THE CLUBHOUSE.

PLAYERS MUST AGREE TO RIDE 2 TO A CART TO PLAY IN THIS EVENT.  SOCIAL DISTANCING OTHER THAN THAT WILL BE REQUESTED.  IF YOU CANNOT RIDE WITH ANOTHER PLAYER, PLEASE DO NOT ENTER THIS EVENT.  THIS IS INNISBROOK'S RULE, NOT A GASPAR RULE.  THEY CANNOT GIVE US A GROUP RATE WITH SHOTGUN START WITH SINGLE PLAYERS PER CART.

WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT OTHER RULES WILL BE IN PLACE AT INNISBROOK YET.  I WILL VERIFY PRIOR TO THE WEEK OF THE EVENT IF POSSIBLE.

Golf Fees for INNISBROOK Island Course $60
Tax included

Points Game $15
Must have played 2 Gaspar Invitationals & have an Official Quota - Closest to Pins included in price

Closest to the Pins $5
This is ONLY for players who DO NOT have an Official Gaspar Quota

Skins $5
Anyone can play, and we separate the group into A and B Flights based on Quotas & number of players

Sink the Putt Contest $1
Anyone can play, $1 cash paid at time of contest

POINTS GAME - $15 entry
We have 3 contests for each Gaspar Invitational.  First is the Points Game.  If you have an established Points Quota, we expect you to play in the Points Game (there are some exceptions to this, like if it's a person new to golf just learning the game).  New players must play 2 Gaspar Invitationals to establish their own Points Quota.  The ONLY exception to this is if you have played in 1 Gaspar Invitational, and have played 2+ recent rounds with one or more of our regular players, and we have a basis to assign a realistic Points Quota.  This would allow you to play in the Points Game in your second Gaspar Invitational.

Optionally, you may play in the Points Game after one Gaspar Invitational by taking the points you achieved in your first event, and add 3 points to that total to give you a Conditional Points Quota.

New players may participate in the Skins Game ($5 entry fee), Closest to the Pins ($5 entry fee), and the Sink the Putt contest ($1 entry fee).

SKINS GAME - $5 entry
This is an optional game can be entered by any player, whether existing, inactive or new.  The cost is $5, and the pot is split up evenly based on the number of Skins won.  ANY score can win a Skin, whether eagle, birdie, par or worse.  However, the winning score must not have any ties.  For example, 3 players birdie hole #1, a par 4.  No one wins a Skin because there are ties for the best score.  On hole #2, a par 5, there are 2 players with birdie, and 1 player with an eagle.  Because there is only one player with the best score on the hole, that player wins a Skin.  This could also happen on a difficult par 3 or par 4, although rare.  Just remember, any ties for best score on a hole means no Skin.

SINK THE PUTT CONTEST - $1 entry (current pot is $135)
This is an optional game that can be entered by any player, whether existing, inactive or new.  The cost is $1, and only one player can win the pot.  We will set up a difficult putt on the practice green, and each player who entered the contest will get one putt.  No practice putts allowed.  If any player who entered the Sink the Putt contest makes the putt, he or she wins the entire pot of entries.  If we have 36 players enter the contest, the winner receives $36.  If two or more players sink the putt, we will have a putt-off, and all players who sank the putt will get 2 putts to make the putt again.  If no one makes a putt during the putt-off, the pot rolls over.  If there is still a tie after the putt-off (2 or more players made the same number of putts in the putt-off), we will go to a 2nd round of the putt-off.  We are going to try our best to make this a very difficult putt where any player has a chance due to a bit of luck.
