Tiebreakers
Tie for money spots or final QF spots:
Top 5 players create the team score. If still tied, we add a golfer — Top 6, Top 7, Top 8. Then we remove a golfer — Top 4, Top 3, Top 2, Top 1. Then we go to Team Round 4 score, Round 3, Round 2, Round 1. Then we go to better finish in the previous tournament(s) until settled. Otherwise it’s a tie and a split.
