The Week
Five rounds in the Sandhills
Four sessions of fourball, then six singles matches to settle it on Saturday.
How it works
Play your own ball. Win the nine.
Every match is a three-point Nassau: one point for the front nine, one for the back, one for the full eighteen. Wednesday through Friday is two-on-two fourball — everybody plays their own ball, the better score counts. Saturday is one-on-one singles at Pinehurst No. 11.
No scrambles. No alternate shot. No paper scorecards — scores go in on your phone and the board updates for everyone.
