Hi Team Titleist,
One of the most exciting weeks in all of golf is finally here yet again: The Ryder Cup! I’m absolutely stoked to see the best in the world represent their respective sides of the pond in a team format at Whistling Straits.
For me, I have to say my favorite session to watch is always the singles matches. The players come out fired up to win a point for their team and it gets me going every time.

FOUR-BALL
In four-ball, each member of a two-man team plays his own ball, so four balls are in play on every hole. Each team counts the lowest of its two scores on each hole, and the team whose player has the lowest score wins the hole. If the low scores are tied, the hole is halved.
FOURSOMES
In foursomes, each two-man team plays one ball per hole with the players taking turns until each hole is complete. Players alternate hitting tee shots, with one leading off on odd-numbered holes, and the other hitting first on even-numbered holes. The team with the low score on each hole wins that hole. If their scores are tied, the hole is halved.
SINGLES
In singles, each match features one player from each team. The player with the lower score on each hole wins that hole. If their scores are tied, the hole is halved.
Four-Ball 14%
Foursomes 36%
