Competition rules
The Baden Masters is open for 20 teams playing a round robin in 4 groups of 5 teams.
Each game is played over 8 ends. If the game is tied after 8 ends, an extra end will be played.
If this end has no score, Last Stone Draw (LSD) shootout after extra end will decide the winner.
The best two teams from each group will play in the quarter finals, where the first ranked teams will play the second ranked teams from another group.
The winners of the quarter final qualify for the semifinal; the other 4 teams are equally ranked in the 5th place.
The winners of the semifinal will play in the final for first and second place; the two other teams are equally ranked in the 3rd place.
There are no time clocks, but teams will be required to adhere to the scheduled game plan.
WCF rules apply.

In the first round the two teams flip a coin for the hammer.
In the following rounds of the round robin the Last Stone Draw (LSD) will determine which team has the hammer in the next game except the teams playing
the team that had the bye in the first draw.
In the quarter finals the first ranked teams have the hammer.
After the quarter- and the semifinal, Last Stone Draw (LSD) will determine which team has the hammer in the next game.

to the tee that they cannot be measured are recorded as 0.0 cm.
Stone Game (DSC)
The five teams with the least distance will receive price money.
