The Match Champions for Charity Format
Initially the first nine holes will be four-ball. This means all four participants will play with their own golf ball. With that in mind the final score of the team depends on the teammate with the lowest score at the end of around. In turn if the teammate has a bad round it will not count against the team.
By contrast the back nine holes will have different rules. The back nine is played under a modified alternate shot. With one golf ball played per team. Each teammate will then alternate on attempting their respective shot. Above all in the back nine every swing and score counts. This means that the pressure is on full blast in the second half of The Match.
Now If there is a tie play will continue until there is one winning team. Extra playing time will take place in a short hole near the 18th.
