Four-Ball:
Four-Ball (sometimes written as “Four Ball”, “Fourball” or just “4 Ball”) is a format of golf competition in which two teams, comprised of two players (partners) each, compete against each other. All four players play their own balls throughout the round (they play with 4 balls in total). At the conclusion of each hole, the lower of the scores among the two partners is recorded as the team score for that hole. This format can be played as Match Play or Stroke Play.
Other names: Better Ball, 2-Person Best Ball, 4BBB.
