🏆 Scoring
- Win a hole: Player with the lowest score on the hole.
- Halve a hole: Same score by both players.
- Win the match: Be ahead by more holes than remain to play
(e.g., 3 up with 2 holes left = “3 & 2” win).
📉 Handicaps
- Optional in tournament play.
- If used:
- The lower handicap player plays off scratch.
- The other player gets the difference in strokes.
- Strokes are applied on holes according to the stroke index (marked on the scorecard).
- The lower handicap player plays off scratch.
✅ Additional Notes
- Each hole is its own battle—a blow-up hole only costs one point.
- No need to hole out if the opponent concedes.
- Strategy counts—aggressive play is often rewarded. Singles match play is a form of play where a player plays directly against an opponent in a head-to-head match. You win a hole by completing it in the fewest number of net strokes, and you win a match when you are winning by more holes than remain to be played.
*You (or your opponent) may concede a stroke, a hole, or even the match to each other. A concession cannot be taken back or refused. If your next stroke has been conceded, you are permitted to putt out, unless this will help your teammate (For example, by showing them the line for their putt).
Scoring
Each match is worth 2 points; 1 point for a tie.
Team with the most points after all matches have concluded wins the cup.
Tiebreaker is the lowest team net total strokes.
If there is STILL a tie, we have a full team- "miss and you're out"- putt off. Starting at 4 ft and increasing 2 feet until someone wins. Winner's team wins the cup.
