TIE-BREAKING:

In case of a tie between three teams at the end competition, the teams tied will select three players to play a sudden-death aggregate playoff immediately following the conclusion of play.  Play will be in three groups of three using the 9-point game format.  After completion of the first playoff hole, the highest point total of all three teammates will determine who moves on.  If all teams are still tied after the first playoff hole, all players from those teams will continue on to an additional sudden-death playoff hole(s).  If two teams are still tied after the first playoff hole (or additional playoff holes), the teams tied will select two players to play the next playoff hole(s) using the 16-point game format.
