Qualifying Process
A total of 78 players will qualify for the state tournament (12 teams and 18 individuals).
Team
In order to qualify, a school must have competed in a minimum of seven (7) rounds. Each team's best seven (7) rounds will be used for qualification purposes. The top 12 ranked teams regardless of section finish will automatically qualify for the state tournament. The automatic qualifiers will be determined by the team’s iWanamaker (iWr) rankings. An iWr is equal to the team's score minus the tee box rating multiplied by 113 and then divided by the slope.
Individual
In order to qualify, an individual must have competed in a minimum of seven (7) rounds. Each individual's best seven (7) rounds will be used for qualification purposes. The top 18 individuals not on a qualifying team - based on their individual iWr at the conclusion of the regular season - will advance to the state tournament. An iWr is equal to the player’s score minus the tee box rating multiplied by 113 and then divided by the slope.
