With 600 players expected to attend, the tournament is shaping up to be one of the most prestigious golfing events of the year, attracting both seasoned players and newcomers alike. The first two days will feature sequential tee times, while the final day on Nov. 16 will shift to a shotgun start.

Continuing a longstanding tradition, players will compete in an 18-hole round utilizing the Modified Stableford Points system with handicaps. A key feature to maintain the flow of the game is that players will be required to pick up their ball after a net bogey to avoid delays.
