I’ve got this dilemma, advise


Recommended Posts

So I had this foursome playing in a fundraiser and one of the gents had to give up his spot because he came down with Covid.  The event got cancelled because of weather and now has been rescheduled.  Does the spot go back to the original player or does the replacement get first dibs if he can make the rescheduled date. Both are great friends.

Step #1 would probably be to let the two guys work it out among themselves. Hopefully they're grown-ups. I'd be understanding being on either side and it sounds like a just-for-fun type event rather than a golf-trip type situation.

 

If this is just a local event then the spot definitely goes back to the original guy if he's now Covid-free (IMHO). Not even a question if it's that simple. 

 

That's assuming that fill-in was just taking a day off work or something. Now, if plans were made to up and fly half-way across the world and that fill-in did a ton of planning maybe it's different but it doesn't sound like it. :classic_laugh:

Nope.  Just local and both guys are retired.  Neither one has been updated if and or when there is a make up date yet.

Did the sub know he was a sub? If yes, he could say do you still need me?

 

Or maybe the covid guy wont be up to playing on the reschedule…..

I would say that the spot goes to the OG and hopefully the sub understands.

That is my thought as well.

I've experienced similar more than a few times.  I'd offer the place to the original guy, and tell him he must commit.  If he's at all unsure, retract and go to the second guy. 

 

I always felt it's my responsibility to round out the team, so I paid in advance for the team, and let players reimburse me.
