2022 A-Z Darts CDC Congressional

Join us at the Washington Area Open as the Summer Series concludes with the 2022 A-Z Darts CDC Congressional! 

This is a UK-Open Style long-format 501 event where the bracket is redrawn with the remaining players after each round. Open registration to a maximum of 48 players with a further 8 spots reserved for the top-8 on the CDC Tour Points List after Weekend #2. Registration is on a first-come/first-served basis.

EVENT FORMAT:

• Straight knockout bracket
• 501 SI/DO
• Best-of-9 legs (best-of-11 in the semifinal and final)
• Bracket re-drawn at the conclusion of each round.

CDC Bull-shot rule is in effect - player on the top of the bracket MUST throw for the bull first. No measurement - two darts outside the 25 or 50 result in a re-throw in reverse order, as do ties in the 25/50. Winner of the bull starts the odd-numbered legs in the odd-numbered sets (legs 1 and 3 in sets 1,3,5). Loser of the bull starts the odd-numbered legs in the even-numbered sets (sets 2,4).

CDC Dress Code is in effect: Business casual clothes (khakis or dress pants with a collared shirt.) No denim or shorts. Dress shoes or all-black sneakers are acceptable.

There will be NO drinking of alcohol allowed during matches. Players will be allowed to drink only the water provided by the tournament staff while engaged in a match. Alcohol consumption is allowed between matches.

This is a loser-marks event. The first match on each board will be marked/scored by the last player drawn onto that board. Each subsequent match will be marked/scored by the loser of the previous match.

PAYOUTS (in USD):
1st: $800
2nd: $400
Top 4: $200
Top 8: $100
