BigPar3

The Illinois Turfgrass Foundation is sponsoring the bigpar3™, which is the World's Largest Closest to the Flagstick Contest™. On August 21, 2010 participating golf courses will set one par 3 golf hole to a specified distance (150 yards for men, 120 yards for women and juniors) and each golfer that plays a round that day will be invited to participate in this historic event. Each shot will be recorded and tabulated and at the conclusion of the day, champions of the bigpar3™ will be announced. Prizes will be awarded based upon (age, sex and club/course affiliation). In addition, one golf course/club will be crowned Champion determined by a collective group score of their best shots.
Furthermore, the bigpar3™ will submit to the Guinness Book of World Records the statistics of the event to establish the World's Largest Closest to the Flagstick Contest™. Participants will be asked to donate $10 to the Illinois Turfgrass Foundation in order to help continue their mission to make golf more enjoyable, affordable and environmentally sound through research and education.
