« Back to Glossary Index

Greensome:

Greensome is a format of golf competition in which two teams, comprised of two players (partners) each, compete against each other. Both partners hit tee shots and they select which ball they prefer. The player whose ball was not selected, then plays the second stroke and they play alternate strokes for the rest of the hole as in Foursome. Penalty strokes do not affect the order of play. Greensome can be played as Match Play or Stroke Play. Other name: Canadian Foursome.
