Supplementary instructions for Medal Competitions
Although the Sue Ryder Care Cup is based upon the Stableford system, Medal Competitions can also be used as follows:
At the completion of the round, the Stableford Nett and Points should be added to the right of the Medal Scores in the normal way. Thus, the Stableford Points can be established as the basis for the SRC Cup Entry.
Competition Organisers should note however that due to the possibility of nett Triple Bogey's or higher, the best 3 cards in the Medal Competition may not be the best 3 Stableford scores. Similarly, a 'No-Return' on one or more holes would not in themselves invalidate the player from the SRC Cup, even though their Medal round would be over.
