Gross score golf round 2nd day (score 2). Gross score golf round 3rd day (score 3).

COMPETITION MODE:
Competitor time of ski race is multiplied by factor 4 and then added to the scores of both golf rounds.
If a competitor does not finish the ski run, he/she has a second chance to restart at the end of complete field. The second run will entail a penalty of one second with regard to the actually achieved result in the race (before multiplying it). If they do not finish this run either, they will get the time of 60 seconds (just to remain in the competition).

The 50 best ski results from 2012 are set as group 1. The start numbers are drawn by lot. All professionals start in group 1.
The ski competition, (race 1) is started in order of group 1, main class, age class and juniors. Race 2, a synchronous parallel course starts with the groups of participants in the women`s and Master I and II classes.

If scores are equal, the better score on the second golf day will be judged. If the scores are still equal the better score of golf round decides on the second day with the handicaps 9, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. In the case of an equal result primarily the better achieved time in ski race and secondarily the score of the first golf round is decisive.
