Scoring rules of golf
There is a difference between a match and stroke play.

The match is decided by each hole.

unless otherwise stipulated in these rules, the winner of a hole is the one who finishes it with fewer strokes. In a handicap game, the winner of a hole is the one with fewer net strokes.

the following terms are used to indicate the winning or losing of holes: Holes up, all sqare or holes to play.

when the number of holes leading by one side is equal to the number of holes to be played, that side is called "dormie".

second, the hole divided equally

if both sides play a hole with the same number of strokes, the hole will be divided equally.

when a player has hit the ball into the hole and his opponent is one stroke short of a tie, if the player commits a foul afterwards and needs to be punished, the hole will be tied equally.

Third, the winner of the competition

In the hole competition (unless otherwise stipulated by the Committee, in the specified round), the winner is the one with more holes ahead than the number of holes to be drilled.

In the event of a tie, the committee may extend the required round by several holes until the winner is decided.

4. Exempt from the next stroke, and admit defeat in one hole or the whole game

When the opponent's ball is at rest or considered to be at rest according to the rules, the player can admit that the opponent can hit the ball into the hole next time, and the ball can be removed by either side with a club or other means.

at any time before the end of a hole or the whole game, players can give up in that hole or game.

The decision to give up in a hole or the whole game is exempted from the next stroke and cannot be withdrawn or revoked.

v. Complaint

In the match, if there is any doubt or dispute between the players, and the representative authorized by the committee is not present within a proper time, the players concerned should continue to play without delay. If there is any complaint that must be decided by the Committee, it must be made before any player plays in the tee of a hole in the match, and if it is the last hole of the match, it must be made before all players leave the hole in the match.

complaints filed after the above time will not be considered unless it is based on facts unknown to the player who filed the complaint or the player who filed the complaint was provided with wrong information by his opponent. Unless the Committee is convinced that the opponent knew that he was providing false information, any complaint after the official announcement of the competition results will be invalid.

VI. General Punishment

Unless otherwise specified, in the match, the penalty for violating the rules is the hole.

1. Winner

ii. non-performance of hitting the ball into the hole

B. decision on the score of the hole

if the rules allow the player to pre-select the disposal procedure, the score of the selected ball is the score.

IV. Refusing to obey the rules

If a player refuses to obey the rules and affects the rights of another player, he will be disqualified.
