Finish in the top 16 and qualify for King of Chains!

The King of Chains tournament starts this Wednesday!

To recap how this will work:
- It will be a multi-week 16 player bracket
- The top 16 raw scores from this week's weekly will qualify
- Subsequent weeks, will match up players by seed ( #1 vs #16, etc.) in a single-elimination round
- Each round will be won or lost based on match play (in other words, raw score doesn't matter for King of Chains, the most # of holes won matters)
- Ties will require a sudden death playoff
- There is no additional cost to play
- You will get a special scorecard for recording your actual score (for the weekly) and your match play score (for the King of Chains)
- The eventual winner will earn the 2017 trophy: a Dynamic Discs Enforcer stamped with the champion art shown here...

See you on Wednesday!
