Nassau

Nassau is one of the most popular golf Side Games because it gives your group three matches in one round.

You can lose the front, win the back, and still have the overall match to play for. In other words, there is always a reason to keep grinding.

What is Nassau?

Nassau is a match play Side Game with three separate matches:

Each match is scored separately.

Nassau uses match play scoring.

For each hole, the player or team with the better score wins the hole. If the players or teams tie, the hole is halved.

Because Nassau has three matches, your group can compete for the front nine, back nine, and full round at the same time.

A press creates a new match during the round.

Presses are usually used when a player or team is behind and wants a chance to win back points over the remaining holes.

Depending on your settings, presses may be started manually or automatically.

Nassau settings may include:

Team scoring options may include:

Available settings may vary by app version and round setup.
