How will Covid 19 affect the day at Sunningdale?

·         The locker rooms will not be in use so you are advised to arrive in your golf clothing and change your shoes in the car park.

·         The men’s toilets in the locker rooms will be available and the ladies’ toilet will be in the clubhouse.  You must not leave anything in the locker rooms

·         The club insists that scorecards will be handed out by the starters on the first tee.

      Player’s must not swap scorecards. You will mark one of your playing competitor’s scores and your own and then check the scores after your round and before handing in your playing partner’s card. You are not required to sign your own scorecard as the Player but you are required to sign your playing partner’s card as the Marker.

·    Scorecards must be put in the box on the registration desk asap after your round.

·    Bunkers will be in play but there will be no rakes. You can prefer your lie within the bunker within 6 inches & no nearer the hole. After playing your stroke you must smooth the sand using your feet and / or club.

·        The flagstick must remain in the hole and players must not touch the flagstick with their hand.  A player can request to have the flagstick pulled back by using a putter head if the flag is ‘against’ them ie leaning to the side of the hole from where they are putting from.

·         At all times players must maintain the appropriate social distancing.
