Garrisons Lake Team Championship
Date: Saturday 9/28/19
Format: 27 hole Modified Ryder Cup Format-
All games are played under Match Play rules, where the result of each game is
determined by the number of holes won. The order of play for the first nine
holes of play is Fourball and Foursomes during the 2nd nine holes. The final
nine holes of play will be in Singles format.
FOURBALL
"Fourball" play is a match in which each member of the two-man teams plays
their own ball. Fourballs are in play per hole with each of the four players
competing. The team whose player has the lowest score on that hole wins the
hole. Should players from each team tie for the best score, the hole is halved.
FOURSOMES
"Foursomes" play is a match where two golfers play together against two other
golfers and each team plays one ball. The golfers play alternate shots (player A
hits tee shot, player B hits second shot, etc) until the hole is played out. Team
members alternate playing the tee shots, with one golfer hitting the tee shot on
odd-numbered holes, and the other hitting the tee shot on the even-numbered
holes. The team with the better score wins the hole. Should the two teams tie
for best score, the hole is halved.
SINGLES
"Singles" is a match in which one player competes against another player. A
player wins the match when he is up by more holes than there are holes
remaining to play.
PAIRINGS
Each Team Captain independently submits the order of play for his Team to
the appointed tournament official. The lists from each Captain are matched,
resulting in the "Pairings". Please note that the players in pairings can be
modified by the Team Captains only if a player is ill or injured. Pairings are
subject to change and should not be considered final until play begins for a
particular match.
