Golf (NCAA)
Verdict
Stroke play: lowest cumulative score wins individual; team score = sum of best 4 of 5 individual scores per round; Match play: holes won determines match outcome; team match = best of 5 individual matches; Tiebreakers: aggregate strokes; sudden-death playoff at championship
Why people argue about this
People often assume that in NCAA golf, a tiebreaker always involves sudden-death playoff, forgetting that it can also be decided by using aggregate strokes as a tiebreaker, leading to confusion about which method is used and when.
