medal play

The prize fund remains $20 million for medal play among 48 players, plus a $5 million purse paid out to the leading three teams.

The final round is medal play with all four scores counting.

One solution is a format used in the Junior Olympics, a three-day, mixed-team event of medal play in alternate shot, better ball and then an individual round in which both scores count.

When I shot 39 to his 36—he had agreed to spot me four strokes, medal play—he lost and refused to pay.

The 312-man field will switch courses on Tuesday, and the top 64 finishers in medal play will advance to match play beginning Wednesday.
