Coming off a high and emotional weekend at the Baja Bean in Richmond, Virginia for the final NIV (Not in Vegas) Golden Tee tournament event. Power Events is keeping that same energy going into the Austin Holiday Classic & Top Gun/Lil Gun tournament to end the 2019 Golden Tee tournament cycle. Spotlight Karaoke Bar will be the host of the Austin, Texas tournament running from Thursday, December 5 to Sunday, December 8.
The Austin Holiday classic already has a whopping 160 players already signed up! Things will really be heating up on the machines and in the bar with that many players entered for a prize pool of $10,000! Remember if you're not signed up, you can do so here, or just show up before 12pm Saturday, December 7 to sign up in person.
The Austin Holiday classic will begin on Thursday, December 5 at 7:30pm with CTTP (Closest -To-The-Pin) and Money Shot. The entry fee is $10 a piece and these contests will be double-elimination. This is a good way to get comfortable with the tournament atmosphere and to start off the weekend in a fun and friendly manner!
On Friday, the tournament turns the heat up a little more. An afternoon blind draw doubles tournament played on classic courses starts at 12:30pm. At night, things get a little hotter with the single-elimination Handicap Tournament. The doubles tournament will have a $15 entry fee and the handicap tournament will be a $25 entry fee.
Saturday is when things really start heating up in the early afternoon. The Main Event will start at 12:00pm and be a 5-course qualifier of the 2020 courses. With 152 players already signed up, this will surely take some time and be extremely competitive! The top 32 players with the lowest combined scores will advance to the double-elimination Championship bracket. The rest of the players will compete for the single-elimination Purple bracket. The entry fee is $100 with a chance of winning a large amount if you place high enough!
Sunday in Austin, Texas is one of the busiest Golden Tee days of the year! The Championship bracket and Purple bracket for the Holiday Classic will start at 12:00pm. Then directly after, the Big Gun / Lil Gun tournament starts. This tournament is for players who have played at least 2 PEGT events throughout the year and have accumulated the most points.
