2018 New England Amateur Championship - Schedule Update (posted 7/17)
PLAYER ADVISORY
Posted July 17, 2018
Notice to New England Amateur Competitors:
On behalf of New England, we would like to thank you all for your patience and understanding this afternoon. Play was officially suspended for the day at 3:20 p.m. Below is a summary of the remaining schedule of events for tomorrow – Wednesday, July 17th - and through Thursday, July 18th at Portland Country Club.
Please note that the event has been officially reduced to a 54-hole event. We will complete Round 1 and Round 2 on Wednesday and Thursday morning. Immediately following the conclusion of Round 2, the field will be reduced to the low 40 scorers and ties. Those competitors will be repaired by score and assigned starting times for Round 3 which will commence on Thursday afternoon.
Here is a summary for each round of competition.
ROUND 1 ->> July 17
Round 1 will resume at 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday, July 18. The driving range will be open at 6:00 a.m.
Players Who Have Started Round 1 (original AM wave): Will resume play beginning at 7:30 p.m. Those players should plan to meet on the putting green at 7:00 a.m. for announcements/instructions and the redistribution of scorecards. Players will then be shuttled/driven out for play. The air horn will then be blown (two short blast repeated) at 7:30 a.m. once everyone is in position to signal the resumption of play. New England rules officials and club staff will assist in shuttling players to their positions; those carts will be organized by hole and staged by the pro shop.
Players Who Have Not Started Round 1 (original PM wave): Have been assigned new starting times beginning at 7:30 a.m. from the 1st and 10th tees. To locate your NEW round 1 time, select the drop down option for “Round 1 A”. Use the below link to go directly to the starting times page.

ROUND 2 ->> July 17 & July 18
Competitors from the original AM wave have been reassigned new starting times which will begin at 12:30 p.m.
Competitors from the original PM wave have been reassigned new starting times which will begin at 5:15 p.m.
In other words, Round 2 will begin at 12:30 pm, with the second wave of round 2 beginning at 5:15 pm. All pairings and starting times are now adjusted to reflect the new time on the tournament portal under “round 2” – please review your round 2 starting time.
Play will continue on Wednesday until dark and will resume on Thursday at 7:30 a.m.
ROUND 3 ->> July 18
Following the conclusion of Round 2 on Thursday, the field will be reduced to the LOW 40 scorers and ties and repaired by score. A champion will be crowned following the conclusion of 54 holes. Any tie for first place will be decided immediately by a hole-by-hole play-off.
Again, we appreciate your patience and understanding. Please don’t hesitate to contact me via email [email protected] or by phone at (513) 800-7948 if you have any questions or concerns.
