it basically means that all competitors started off on the first tee as opposed to a shotgun start in which the players all start in groups at the same time but from different holes

golf rules and regulations are tricky and this could even mean that there was only one category in terms of handicap so let's wait and see what else comes up, in which case it would be "single category"

| Thanks, David! |
| Would this sentence make any sense in English? "Fulanito de tal, winner of the 18-hole singles medal play tournament with handicap in standard tee-off format, qualified directly for the Latin America Cup Grand Final to be played in Riviera Maya, Mexico. |

En España la expresión "salidas libres" significa otra cosa, pero veo que en Latinoamérica significa salidas consecutivas por oposición al tiro de pistola en el que los partidos salen simultáneamente por todos los tees y llenan el campo.
Cuidado con la expresión "medal play", que en inglés se dice "stroke play".
Sugerencia para la frase: "Fulanito, winner of the 18-hole singles stroke play handicap event with staggered/consecutive starts, qualified directly for the Latin America Cup Grand Final to be held at Riviera Maya, Mexico."
