New format
for DHL Challenge New Delhi, January 15 The other commonly used format is the matchplay, which is like a knock-out tournament and a direct clash between the players. In the modified format, players play their scheduled rounds, but get points for the scores on each hole. A par is worth 0 point, a birdie plus two, an eagle plus 5 and an albatross plus eight. On the other hand, a bogey earns minus one point, a double bogey two minus points and so on. The modified format rewards excellence—in the case of birdies and eagles—and is forgiving to mistakes. Three birdies and three bogies in a stableford round would mean a mediocre level-par 72 score, which is better than someone who scores five birdies and six bogies (a score of one-over in stroke play). |
