28 points up for grabs over the three days
First past 14 points wins

If you win more holes than your opponent, you score a point for your team
Ties are worth a half-point
Over the first two days, the players compete as pairs in foursomes and four-balls
Foursomes - alternate shots - lowest score wins
Four-balls - every player plays their own ball and whosever scores lowest wins the hole - ties for 2 lowest scores
On Sunday, there will be 12 singles matches in which players go directly head-to-head
Lowest score wins the hole - ties if same score
Conceding holes is allowed (usually done on gimme-putts)
A.W. Tillinghast and Clifford C. Wendehack design
Long, difficult course
Par 70, 7,398 yards
Greens: Poa annua/bentgrass mix
Relatively flat greens compared to other Tillinghast designs
Ranging from 5,500 sq ft to 6,000 sq ft
Around 12.5 on stimpmeter
Rough: Mix of rye, bluegrass, and poa
Per X, rough is cut down compared to previous stroke-play events here
Around half of what it was grown to for Majors
Lowest missed fairway penalty is on Hole 1
Expect players to try to cut the corner over the trees - especially Bryson, Rory
Expect easier pin positions and scoring rather than difficult Major set up
Long approach shots will be frequent
High ball-flight should be a big edge into greens
