*Foursomes (four groups of two-man teams) - "Foursome" play is a match where two golfers compete on a team against two other golfers and each side 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.The team with the better score wins the hole. Should the two teams tie for best score, the hole is halved.

*Four-balls (four groups of two-man teams) - "Four-ball" play is a match in which each member of the two-man teams play their own ball. Four balls are in play per hole with each of the four players recording a score on the hole. The team whose player posts the best score on that hole wins the hole. Should players from each team tie for the best score, the hole is halved.
