fourball
Paired match play
Fourball is a golf format in which two teams of two players compete, with each player playing their own ball throughout.
On each hole, the better score from each team counts.
The term distinguishes this format from foursomes, where partners alternate shots on a single ball.
We're playing fourball this afternoon.
