  • WATERFRONT GOLF CLUB LOCAL RULES Club Rule
    WATERFRONT GOLF CLUB LOCAL RULES Club Rule (Mt. Woodson) There are no out of bounds or lost balls when we play Mt. Woodson. Play any lost ball or out of bounds ball as ball lost in penalty area. Drop forward with one stroke penalty when the area lies between the tee box and the fairway. Club Rule (Boulder Oaks) All desert areas have been designated penalty areas (regardless of what it might say on the scorecard). The player has the option to play his/her ball as it lies in the desert area or take relief using the point the ball crossed into the desert area and a point one club length (longest club not your putter) no nearer the hole to drop and play from with 1 penalty stroke added. Example – Tee shot enters desert area and comes to rest in a location the player does not wish to play from. Relief is taken from the point the ball crossed into the desert area and the player is now playing their third shot (Stroke 1 in penalty area, drop is stroke 2, hit stroke 3) Club Rule (Alternative to Stroke & Distance) A new Local Rule will provide golfers with an alternative to stroke-and-distance relief for balls that are lost outside a penalty area or out of bounds. Stroke-and-distance relief will still be available (provisional shots are encouraged if in doubt) but it’s not the only option now. For a penalty of two strokes you can drop and not return to the position the original shot was played from.

    rolex anD golf forever golf Rolex is committed to the permanent quest for excellence in all its activities and has been a long-term supporter of golf in its pursuit of the same. The brand’s enduring relationship with the game began more than 50 years ago, in 1967, with Arnold Palmer, joined by Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. Known together as The Big Three, these legendary players changed the face of golf forever, and their partnership with Rolex marked the beginning of a relationship based on a commitment to continuous im- provement and unwavering precision. Since then, the affiliation between Rolex and golf has grown into one with a global reach. Rolex is now part of the very fabric of golf and supports the game at all levels, including elite players and legends of the game, Major cham- pionships, the foremost professional tours and the world’s leading team competitions. Rolex’s support for golf is governed by underlying values of integrity and respect for tradition that ensure the continuity of exper- tise and knowledge, while understanding the importance of investing in the development of sport for future generations. As such, the Swiss watchmaker extends its support to amateur tournaments, international federations and organizations representing golfers of all ages. The as- sociation between Rolex and golf stands for quality, elegance, reliability and a pioneering spirit. Please note that the following information is in line with the “traditional” golfing calendar. However, given the extraordinary circumstances that have impacted the entire world in 2020, the dates of some of these events are most likely to have changed and/or will be changed.

  • Tony Finau, Rickie Fowler Commit to 2021 Travelers Championship
    CONTACT: Tara Gerber Travelers Championship 860.502.6815 [email protected] TONY FINAU, RICKIE FOWLER COMMIT TO 2021 TRAVELERS CHAMPIONSHIP HARTFORD, Conn., June 9, 2021 – The Travelers Championship today announced that Tony Finau and Rickie Fowler have committed to play in the 2021 tournament. Both players have won on the PGA TOUR and have represented the United States with appearances in the Ryder Cup and the Presidents Cup. “Tony and Rickie will certainly draw large crowds to TPC River Highlands,” said Travelers Championship Tournament Director Nathan Grube. “They’re both familiar with the course, and we’re thrilled that they’re adding the Travelers Championship to their schedules again this year.” Tony Finau won the Puerto Rico Open in 2016 for his first PGA TOUR victory. Since then, he’s had eight second-place finishes, including two this season. Over the course of his career Finau has 10 top-10 finishes in major championships, most recently a tie for eighth last month at the PGA Championship. Finau made his Ryder Cup debut in 2018 and played in the Presidents Cup in 2019. He is No. 14 in this week’s Official World Golf Ranking. This will be Finau’s sixth appearance at TPC River Highlands. Rickie Fowler is a five-time winner on the PGA TOUR, highlighted by his victory at THE PLAYERS Championship in 2015. This year, Fowler tied for eighth at the PGA Championship, his best finish of the season. His first TOUR win came in 2012 at the Wells Fargo Championship, and his most recent victory was the Waste Management Phoenix Open in 2019.

  • Two-Time U.S. Open Winner Retief Goosen to Make PGA TOUR Champions Debut at Oasis Championship
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Two-Time U.S. Open Winner Retief Goosen To Make PGA TOUR Champions Debut At Oasis Championship BOCA RATON, Florida – Retief Goosen always had a sense of good timing. His ability to produce clutch shots at key moments helped him win a pair of U.S. Opens and earn induction into this year’s World Golf Hall of Fame class. Goosen also is fortunate he turns 50 on Sunday, just in time for the South African to become eligible for the PGA TOUR Champions’ first full-field event. Goosen will make his debut at next week’s Oasis Championship at The Old Course at Broken Sound. “I know I’m going to have a blast,” Goosen said. “I’ve been thinking about playing on this tour for a long time.” The Oasis Championship also received commitments from former British Open champions Darren Clarke and Tom Lehman, who won the PGA TOUR Champions’ season-opening event in Hawaii for his 12th career win on the 50-and-older circuit. Lehman won the 1996 British Open and captured the 2011 Oasis Championship at Broken Sound. Goosen has won 33 worldwide events – seven on the PGA TOUR -- and spent more than 260 weeks in the top 100 in the world rankings from 2001-07, reaching as high as No. 3 in 2006. He played in six Presidents Cup competitions for the International Team and would have won more had he not battled chronic back problems that are a thing of the past. Goosen is still basking in last year’s announcement he would be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame the week of the U.S.

  • New ERC Fusion Driver Wins Again to Give Callaway Golf Drivers a 1-2 Finish at Season-Ending LPGA Tour ADT Championship
    New ERC Fusion Driver Wins Again to Give Callaway Golf Drivers a 1-2 Finish at Season-Ending LPGA Tour ADT Championship CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 24, 2003--The new ERC(R) Fusion(R) Driver from Callaway Golf Company (NYSE: ELY) posted another big win yesterday. The winner of the ADT Championship used the hot new club in her one-stroke victory over Annika Sorenstam, giving the ERC Fusion Driver a 1-2 finish at the final LPGA Tour event of the season. This latest ERC Fusion victory comes shortly after Jim Thorpe won the Champions Tour season finale with an ERC Fusion Driver. The winner of the ADT Championship recently switched from a Great Big Bertha(R) II Titanium Driver to an ERC Fusion Driver. Her extraordinarily accurate driving helped her birdie five of the closing nine holes yesterday at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla. The victory is the ninth for the ERC Fusion Driver across the world's six major professional tours since the driver was introduced to tour players. The innovative driver -- which combines a forged titanium cup-face area with a precision-weighted composite body to produce explosive performance -- will ship to selected retailers and golf shops next month. Sorenstam used the ERC Fusion Driver in two of her LPGA Tour-leading six victories this season, including her runaway victory at the Mizuno Classic two weeks ago. She overcame an eye infection to finish second at the ADT Championship and claim her sixth Rolex Player of the Year Award. Sorenstam finished the season as the LPGA Tour leader in money won ($2,029,506), scoring average (69.02), driving distance (269.7), greens in regulation (75.5 percent), percentage of rounds under par (76.7 percent) and percentage of top-10 finishes (88.2 percent) -- all while using Callaway Golf(R) clubs and balls.
