It is no longer time based
Each competitor gets 20 swings in the 1st round, 15 in the 2nd round and 15 in the 3rd round
Every swing counts no matter if it’s a home run or not
If a player hits a home run on his final swing, he can continue until he fails to hit a home run
Top 4 home run totals in the 1st round advance to semi-finals where competitors will be ranked based on 1st round totals
Ties in the 1st round will be decided by home run distance – Ties in semi-finals and finals decided by 3-swing swing-off
