Tournament Divisions: The competition divisions available at events will vary by tournament format. The majority of tournaments will include our 3 standard divisions: Open, Senior and Super Senior. Below are the divisional age requirements.

• Super Senior (60-69)
• Legends (70 & older)
• Nicklaus Junior Championship Junior (13-18)
• Palm Beach Parent-Child (10 & Under, 11-13, Amateur & Pro)

All players will be assigned to the age division that matches their age as of the first day of the Championship.

* You may always compete in a younger division than your age ("playing up"), but never in a division older than your age.

If playing up, Player of the Year points, when available, will be allocated to the division in which you compete (except for events not offering your division or only an Open Division). For these events with only an Open Division, you must choose which Player of the Year Points Race you want your points allocated to before participating in the Open Division.

*Exception: Juniors (ages 10-18) are allowed to compete in older divisions but not a younger division.
