Age and Birthday Qualifying Information

The MJT will qualify players directly to the FCG Callaway World Championship in the above-mentioned age divisions, however our players will compete for these spots in their correct MJT age divisions (as of August 31). If their respective qualifying spot is in a younger division, those affected will have their score adjusted by the rating differential to determine the qualified player.

For example, if a player is 13 years old and in the Bantam Division (based on MJT's static age of August 31st) but they are 12 based on FCG's age date of July 19, so competing for a 11-12 year old spot (Peewee division), the player’s score in the Bantam division will be adjusted by the differential between score and course rating to determine their qualifying score against those in the Peewee division.
