Three-Day Competition Three-day competition featuring eight foursomes matches on Friday, October 6; six four-ball matches on Saturday, October 7; and 12 singles matches on Sunday, October 8.

Using the foursomes format, each two-member team hits alternate shots with the same ball. At the end of the hole, one score is recorded for the team. In contrast, a four-ball match features each player playing her own ball throughout the entire match.

At the end of each hole, the best score of the two teammates is recorded; only one score from each team is recorded for each hole. For the singles competition, one U.S. and one European player compete against one another.

Each plays her own ball throughout the round and records her own score.
