Monte Carlo:
Monte Carlo is a golf betting format in which two two-player teams compete against each other. All players play their own balls.
On each hole, the team’s score is calculated by multiplying the scores of both partners.
On the scorecard, the difference between the two teams’ scores is recorded for each hole. The overall winner is determined by the total of these differences over all holes played (3, 6, 9, or 18).
Example:
- Partners in team A score 6 and 5,
- Partners in team B score 4 and 7,
- Team B wins the hole by (6 × 5) − (4 × 7) = 2 points.
Optional variation (to be agreed by the players):
- Max score – limits the maximum score on a hole (e.g. 10) to avoid a disastrous hole.
