How does Auto-finishing work?
Auto finishing is a built-in Trackman feature designed to ensure fair and consistent scoring across all players. It cannot be disabled or modified.
The specific auto-finish rules at Moore Park Golf Range for the VGL Tournament are as follows:
On the Green (Lie type: GREEN):
If the ball is within 2 meters of the pin → It will count as 1 stroke (automatic finish, like a gimme putt).
If the ball is on the green but more than 2 meters from the pin → It will count as 2 strokes (automatic finish, assuming a standard two-putt scenario from that range).
In the Fairway (Lie type: FAIRWAY):
If the distance from the current ball position to the pin is less than 18 meters → It will counts as 2 strokes (automatic finish). Outside of 18m but still in the fairway will count as 3+ strokes
In the Rough (one location type: ROUGH):
If the ball is in the rough but inside the 32 metre radius → It will count as 3 strokes – (In real golf, we appreciate you might be able to get the ball up and down out of the rough, but unfortunately the auto-finishing will give you 3 shots as a standard rule)
In the Bunker (Lie type: BUNKER):
Bunkers inside the 32 metre radius will automatically count as 3 strokes
Do I have to play every week?
No – however, the more weekly events you play, the more chances of accumulating points towards your season total
How many teams qualify for the Championship Final?
12 – the Top-3 placings from each season auto qualify with the remaining spots consisting of top teams outside auto qualifiers who accumulated most points across the entire year
Is Trackman technology accurate?
In the vast majority, however, it does not always perfectly replicate real golf shots and may behave differently than expected. This is an inherent limitation of technology and cannot be adjusted or overidden.
Do we chip and putt?
No – any golf shot that comes to rest within 32 metres will be subject to Trackman range’s auto-finishing feature as outlined in our T&C’s
What happens if the Trackman screen freezes?
If the Trackman system freezes, please flag down a VGL official or Moore Park Golf concierge
so they can reset the system for you – From that point, scores will be saved in the Trackman backend.
- Missing holes will be re-entered, and the round will continue normally.
- In the case of a major technical issue, your bay will be re-located to a working Trackman
What happens if there is a tie?
- Weekly winners will be decided by a countback (last 9, 6, 3, 1 hole/s)
- Season winners will be decided by a sudden death playoff from 1st hole on the course just played
- Championship winners will be decided by a sudden death playoff from 1st hole of course just played
