Scoring: Official scoring will be done in golf genius. This round is not postable. Record each team or player’s gross score. The app will calculate applicable handicap strokes and assign the team score on each hole. 2 NET scores will be counted toward the shamble holes and enter the same team score for the scramble holes ( if any player shows a “pop” the entire team gets a stroke on that hole). Following play, players from each team need to confirm and attest their score at the scoring table. 50% of Tournament Handicap will be used.

What is the Legends Tournament? Onion Creek Club is one of the most historic clubs in the Central Texas area, established in 1974 by Austin native Jimmie Connolly and Legendary Golfer Jimmy Demaret. Jimmy Demaret is quoted as saying “Nature put it here, all I did was manicure it”. Jimmy Demaret had the vision to let the lay of the land dictate the course layout, and with that simple understanding of course design created a beautiful and challenging course that top professionals to beginners enjoy to this day.

In the mid 90’s Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore lent a hand in shaping an additional nine to complete the twenty seven hole layout as we know it today. Onion Creek Club has had quite a history and is known for the “Birthplace of the Senior Tour” back in 1979 the first “Legends of Golf” was held at Onion Creek Club and the rest is history. Onion Creek Club also hosted three LPGA Tour Events 1999, 2000, and 2001.
