Modified alternate shot will remain the format for any Don Larsen Jersey extra-hole play."The Match" will also feature several challenges throughout the 18 holes that are meant to raise additional charitable funds.

So if Team A was to shoot a combined 3-under par on one hole, and Team B was to shoot 2-under on the same hole, Team A would be granted the point. The number of strokes would then reset for the next hole it would have no bearing on any of the next holes played.How does match play scoring work?Scoring in match play is relatively simple: If you win a hole outright, you are granted a point. If you tie the number of strokes as your opponent, each is granted a half-point. The loser is awarded nothing.

Team A's two golfers both shoot 2-under par on a given hole; Team B's golfers shoot 2-over and 3-under, respectively. Team A's official score for the hole would be 2-under, and Team B's would be 3-under. That means, under match play, Team B would be granted the point, as it produced the lowest individual score for that hole.What is modified alternate shot in golf?Modified alternate shots are played in pairs. Both players for a particular team tee off, then pick who had the best shot. The player who didn't shoot the designated best shot off the tee will then play the second shot. Players will then alternate shots until finishing the hole. The team with the lowest number of strokes used between its two players will win the hole.
