The Beckfoot Cup is the Gentlemen’s singles knockout matchplay trophy. The competition is played over 18 holes matchplay throughout the season, culminating with a 36 hole matchplay final. Handicap allowance is the full difference between the two players. If any match is tied after 18 or 36 holes, a sudden death play-off starting at the 1st hole will decide the winner. Matches are played from the white tee markers.
