That tournament format is called a scramble. Tournaments are pretty cool, lots of different formats. The one we played was called Best Ball, where each person plays their own ball for the entire hole, and then the best score from the group is taken...but it was only 2 man teams instead of 4. It was a pretty big tournament for all of Northern CA, and there were about 100 teams. We tied for 2nd and I won a $400 driver. My boss won like $600 cause he's a pro. h:

Did it rain all day? Playing in the rain sucks.
