To anyone interested it will be played signups to start on or around July 4th
2019 Andyson Memorial Tournament
The set up will be the same as previous years. Everyone is eligible to play regardless of Tier, level or skill, Mobile players are not eligible for Elimination rounds but will be able to participate in the stroke play rounds (this will be extended this year as a side by side tournament). Only stipulation for mobile players is you must play rounds without apparel upgrades as this will give you an advantage. As with previous tournaments prizes will not be awarded as an incentive but if anyone on thier own wants to set up a prize incentive by all means feel free
Round 1 will be 18hole stroke play ranked game played at designated course you can play alone or with others, but only your first ranked round for the course that shows in score history will count (Not Country club tournaments or WGT tournaments). You will have 1 week to play and post a score.
Round 2 will be 18hole stroke play ranked game played at designated course you can play alone or with others, but only your first ranked round for the course that shows in score history will count. You will have 1 week to play and post a score.
The lowest total of both rounds in each Tier(including ties) will automatically advance to the Elimination round. Failure to post a score in either round will result in you not being eligible for elimination round.
The Elimination round will consist of 64 players. All of the Tier leaders who recieved an automatic advance and the remaining players who will be chosen at random to fill the field from those that completed both stroke play rounds.
There will be 5 9hole match play rounds and 1 18hole match play round for the final. You will have 2weeks to arrange and play your game failure to do so will result in a winner chosen by a flip of a coin. The winner will receive the coveted Andyson Memorial Trophy(for display on their WGT page). Courses will be chosen at random prior to start of elimination round. Each round of elimination will begin after previous round has completed.
New for this year will be the extended Stroke play Tournament. After the initial 2 stroke play rounds, all those who completed both will be eligible for the Stroke play Championship. This will consist of randomly chosen courses played weekly. The Cut line will be half the field each week until there is one winner. If a score falls on the cut line everyone with that score will advance. (IE: 100 people play cut line player scores a 66 every player that scored a 66 even if under the cut lne will advance) These will also be 18 hole ranked rounds (Not C.C. or WGT tournaments) Failure to post a score will result in your elimination. This is not a total score just the score for that weeks tournament (IE 1st week cut line is 66 you score 60 the next weeks game cut line is 64 but you score 65 you would be eliminated) Cut line will be determined after round is completed. Next round will begin after cut line is determined. Winner will receive Andyson Memorial Stroke play Trophy for display on their WGT page
Sign ups to start on or around July 4th Tournament play to Start August 1st, when signing up please specify Elimination only, Stroke play only (this is Mobil players only option), or Both.
this will be re-posted for signup

  That is great news to hear! You did a great job last year. Looking forward to the honor of playing again in it. I used my ball marker last Sunday and always enjoy explaining the history behind it.

      The first time I was gonna use my marker I told my nephew and his good friend the story behind it before we teed off. Couldn't wait to mark my ball. Into the fairway bunker.....Wonderfully lucky 4 iron to the fringe.....Holed the putt.
             Had to wait two holes.....Pretty sure he had somethin' to do with it, hehehhee.
            I'd love to be a part of the best thing on here again!
                         Thanks to any and everyone who is helping to put this together.
            I'm not too comp savvy, but if I can help in any way lemme know.
                       Brothers,

  With all respect Lonnie, mabye they use St Andrew with a reference to Andyson.
  I didn’t play for a couple of years and was surprised on my return to discover what had happened. I had in the distant past played a few times with Andyson, only a couple but they were totally enjoyable.
  And i would love to play in this years event, it’ll be my first.

  St. Andrews is always first course (in stroke play) as it was Dennis's favorite

  If you can get both 18hole rounds in before cutoff I can work with that

  A huge shout out to Shedlite for taking charge of a Memorial Tournament that means soooo much to so many players in the community. TY Shed !
  Dennis, aka: andyson was a HUGE part of the WGT community and the WGT Forums. He created the WGT Enquirer that many players in the community waited for every year. His Photo Shop (at the time) was hands down THE BEST.
  TX again to Shedlite and TY to all who assist in contribute in any way. 
  Just drop me a line if you  need any assistance Shed. OTE

TY again Shed.
4th Annual " andyson Memorial Tournament". He would be BLOWN AWAY!
He was such a HUGE part if this community. All of us that had the pleasure to have met him and became friends with him over the years knows what a huge roll he played in this community.
For anyone who didn't know Dennis, aka; andyson, go to his profile and you will get an idea what I'm talking about. He was a straight shooter, smart, and extremely knowledgeable of people and especially the people in this community,,lol.
GAME ON! OTE
