The Devon Hotel Taranaki Men’s Open Fours Post Section Draw 2026 is live.
We have changed Conditions of Play because of forecasted rain for post section play on Friday and Saturday and with the large numbers of qualifiers.
Post Section play on Friday will be 3 rounds of 18 ends.
We understand that players want to play 25 ends, however we feel it necessary to ensure the completion of the tournament, and with weather interruptions there could be a chance that the tournament is further delayed by rain.
