Ten Points (Golf Game): Rules and How to Play

Ten Points

A three-person game with ten points awarded on each hole.

Also called Points for Degenerates.

3 players

One point for 'prox' - closest to the pin in the fewest amount of shots. Not necessarily a green-in-regulation. Just fewest shots.
When all three players tie (net), each player is awarded 3 points
When one player wins the hole, one scores second lowest, and the last player scores third lowest, points are awarded 5, 3, 1
When one player wins the hole, and the two others tie for second, points are awarded 5, 2, 2
When two players tie for low, and the third player scores the second lowest, points are awarded 4, 4, 1
