2024 Sunstein Series Rules

The Series acts as the qualifying series for entry into the Massachusetts Grand Prix, held Sunday, October 20 at Maple Hill for players in the following divisions: MPO, FPO, MA1, and FA1. A player’s top six points earning finishes in each division count towards that division’s qualifying table. All other points finishes are considered “dropped” and do not count toward the final standings. The winner of the 2024 Sunstein Open at 501 automatically qualifies for the Grand Prix. That person, and the next top seven points finishers in each of the four divisions, will be invited to the Grand Prix.
