SITUATION
RULES FOR EACH GAMES
Stroke Play
Competition by total strokes after 18 holes. Player with the least amount of strokes is the winner.
Match Play
The player with the least strokes after each hole will be the winner of that hole. When the winning number is the same as that of the remaining hole, it is a dummy hole and it will be "game over" unless the player behind wins that hole.
Nassau Game
Wins or losses are decided by points made on either holes 1 thru 9 or holes 10 thru 18. The player with the most points after 9 holes is the winner. A one stroke difference is equal to 10 points. The player with more wins after the 9 holes can get 50 points.
Contest winner (driving contest, near pin contest, hole in one) will get 20 points per contest as bonus points. (winner can take points from the loser). The player with the most points is the winner.
In a Nassau game, the "press" rule is in effect for a chance of reversal. In the final hole, the player who is 2 strokes behind and cannot win even if he gets this hole will be given the right to declare "press". If you get that hole, your score goes to zero. If the player behind gets points by the number of strokes and bonuses, he can reverse the game. However, if you lose, you must give double the lost points. ie: 100 points to the winner.
•
The decision to "press" will be shown on the screen before it starts.
•
Only the player behind can declare "press" and the leader must accept.
