Reverse Scramble (Multi Group)

Always play the WORSE of the two balls (a.k.a. Worst Ball)

6–144 playersMulti-Group

How It Works

Both partners play every shot, but the team must always continue from the WORSE of the two balls — the opposite of a scramble. One team score per hole.

Options & Variations

A League (multi-group) Team One Ball game. Team format: Partner (2-player, default 90% low + 70% high HC split — by far the most generous of any Team One Ball format, since every shot is genuinely harder) or Group (3-4 player, Player 1-4 HC split). The shared entry fee funds a sliding-scale purse to the top teams (ties split, optional rake/house cut); season order-of-merit points can be awarded by finish.

Availability

Fully scorable inside a League event — configure it there under a season's event games. It can't run as a single casual round on its own (it needs the League's shared field and purse), so it always shows as League Only in the standard game picker (use the single-round Reverse Scramble game for one group instead).

Pro Tips

Both players need to hit every shot solidly — there's no hiding a bad one behind a good partner.

Expect big numbers; this is the toughest format here, and the handicap allowance reflects it.
