All ties except for first place will be split among the players that have a tying score for the tournament.
Tie Breaker for the Team spot will be based on the final 36-hole tournament scores that a player posts. If that is tied we will revert to the last round of that event and then finally to the last nine holes and so on following the tie breaking system in the USGA Rules of Golf. ***Note*** If both players are present at the final event and there is a tie to see who makes the team we will have a sudden death playoff to determine the last spot on the team.
