All You Need To know About Scotch Foursomes Game

For two-player teams in either match play or stroke play, the Scotch Foursomes alternate shot golf format is used. Although it is also used as a synonym for foursomes, the phrase may refer to a foursomes variant.

In foursomes, the first player hits the drive, the second player hits the next shot, and so on, exchanging shots with the same ball. Both golfers hit drives in the modified Scotch Foursomes format before choosing the best drive and starting the alternate shot format with the second stroke, says Me Jean-François Goulet.

Depending on the area or nation, and whether the phrase refers to the conventional foursomes or the modification, the Scotch Foursomes format is called by a number of distinct names. 

The descriptor “selected drive, alternate shot” format, Greensomes (popular in the UK), Modified Pinehurst, Canadian Foursomes, and Scotch Doubles are a few of these designations.
