Semifinals set at San Francisco City
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (March 2, 2014) -- Shintaro Ban won yet again to continue his march towards the championship match at the 2014 San Francisco City Championship at Presidio Golf Course.

Ban, who knocked off defending champion and top seed Will Brueckner last weekend, beat Ryan Gronlund in Sunday's quarterfinals and will move to next Saturday's semifinals where he'll face No. 4 seed Ryan Knop.

Knop defeated Miguel Delgado, 3-and-2, Sunday to advance.

On the other side of the bracket, Ryan Wilson continued his run to the finals after starting as the No. 47 seed. He defeated Ian Coffman, 4-and-3, in Sunday's quarterfinal and advanced to face Rick Reinsberg.

Reinsberg, of course, defeated No. 3 seed Justin Suh, who entered the weekend as the lowest remaining seed. Reinsberg, seeded 27th, beat Suh 3-and-2 to take the final semifinal spot.

The San Francisco City Championship continues and wraps up next weekend at Presidio Golf Course with the semifinals on Saturday and finals scheduled for Sunday.

Registration for exempt players, and for non- exempt players with a handicap index of 6.4 or lower as of the date of entry, opens on October 1 and will remain open until the field limit (120 players including spots reserved for exempt players) is reached. When the field limit is reached, all additional registrants will be entered in the pre-qualifier at Lincoln Park on Friday, March 7, 2025.

Once entries close, if there are any unfilled spots in the Men's Championship (due to fewer than 50 exempt players registering or withdrawals), they will be filled by Pre- Qualifier registrants in the order in which they registered.

Players entering pre-qualifying will pay an entry fee of $165 for the pre-qualifier, and those advancing from the pre-qualifier will pay the remainder of the entry fee (must be paid prior to playing).

The 36-hole match play qualifier will be held March 8-9, 2025, with 18 holes played at TPC Harding Park and 18 holes at Lincoln Park for a combined 36-hole qualifying score.

There will be 156 players in the qualifying round with 64 players advancing to match play. When all qualifying has been completed, the Men’s Championship Flight will consist of 64 contestants. In the event of a playoff to qualify for match play, a player must be present in order to retain his right to participate in the playoff.

Match play will begin on March 15, 2025. All match play for the Championship Flight (Mar 15-16, 22-23) will be held at TPC Harding Park.

A schedule of all dates of play can be found on the tournament website sfgolfchampionship.com.
