SCORES

COMPETITION MODE
Result/time of ski race (about 35 seconds) is multiplied by 4 and will be added to the scores of two rounds of 18 holes golf. (2 different courses) MASTER classes: time from ski competition is multiplied by 8, then multiplied by the year of birth (e.g. born 1953, time multiplied by 0.53) calculation minimum factor is 0,53 (born 1953 and before) Result skiing in seconds multiplied by 4 or 8* (score 1). Gross score golf round 2nd day (score 2). Gross score golf round 3rd day (score 3).
SKI
*RACE 1 is started by Ladies, Master 1 and Master 2 classes in ascending HCP order. *RACE 2 is started by group ELITE class, main class, age class and junior athletes sorted as set athletes, followed in ascending Golf Handicap order. The 50 best ski results of 2022 race are set in ELITE-group. All professionals start in this group.
If a competitor does not finish the ski run, he/she has a second chance to restart at the end of the race field. The second run will entail a penalty of one second with regard to the actually achieved result in the race (before multiplying it). If an athlete does not finish this run either, he will receive a result of 60 seconds (just to remain in the competition). HELMETS REQUIRED AT SKI RACE!
GOLF
is to be played on both 18 holes courses; the starting order is depending on skiing results. After the ski race the field will be divided into 2 parts. Field 1 (best skiing result) is playing golf first day at course Kitzsteinhorn. Field 2 (abt. ski race result 85 -up) is starting at course Schmittenhöhe. On second golf day both fields will change the golf courses.
If scores are equal, the better score on the second golf day will be judged. If the scores are still equal the better score of golf round decides on the second day with the handicaps 9, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. In the case of an equal result primarily the better achieved time in ski race and secondarily the score of the first golf round is decisive.
TEAM
Result/time of ski race (without age factor) is applied. From the sum of each four (4) best results on all three competition days (Ski – Golf day 1 – Golf day 2 & 3) the Team World-Cup is calculated.
