The Macau Golf Masters is designed as a major tournament that includes Level 1, 2 and 5 competitions supporting the effort in integrating and achieving full acceptance for mentally handicaped in the modern society.
Level 1 – Individual Skills Competition
This level is designed for entry-level athletes or those with less ability to test six core competency skills: short putt, long putt, chip shot, pitch shot, iron shot and wood shot. In our tournament, we will use this Level 1 competition as a practice to give the teams the opportunity to get familiar and comfortable with the environment and venue. It will also give us the opportunity to present this event, Macau Golf Masters, to the media, while the athletes can interact with supporters, volunteers, organizers, media and sponsors...
Level 2 – Alternate Shot Team Play (9 holes)
This level is designed to give the golfer with Intellectual Disability (ID) an opportunity for transition from individual
skills to individual play and to progress under the guidance of a
partner whose ability and knowledge of golf is more advanced than that
of the Level 5 athlete.
In our tournament athletes of four will
be divided into two flights of two athletes while being accompanied by
one Guardian player. A flight will be accompanied by a coach and a caddy assisting in a 9-hole round each day.
Level 5 – Individual Stroke Play Competition (18 holes)
This level is designed to meet the needs of those
golfers with ID who wish to play individually in a tournament where the
stipulated round is 18 holes.
In our tournament, Level 5
athletes will be playing a 18-hole tournament format round of golf
together with 18 specially invited local and regional corporate and
private entities with minimum Handicap of 18. The teams will be
assisted by a caddie and a coach in a two-round tournament at Caesars Golf Macau.
