No there has never been a tournament on a pitch and put, since day one. Many will not hit off a mat, so there is that.

A golfer would only take a gap, can be hit easily to 100+ yards. Doesn’t take much to shorten a swing, adjust foot stance, slight change in hand position and club face to pop one short.

Our 90lb granddaughter can hit a gap 100yards, so 2 clubs is very doable.

Once a month 40 of us play money game on an executive with only 3 clubs. Sometimes you can choose, sometimes the 3 club choice is in the rules. Think executive with 2 par 4…what 3 clubs?
That is a challenge, for competition, with a very large learning curve of quick thinking.

I would suggest like others. Post a sign up, you might get a few responses.
Ever put a foot wedge in the rules?:
