Each entrant becomes part of their country's team. There is no maximum number in a team.
The first and second competitive rounds will be Stableford format. The third and fourth will be Matchplay format.

1 point for a win or 1/2 point for a tie

OTHER PRIZES

Over the first three days, compete for a selection of top individual prizes.
