    Round Robin

    In biographies about players pre-50's I encounter this term. Seems they played one or two Round Robins a year, but I can't figure out exactly what kind of tournament it is. Heven't encountered anything similar here in Sweden so I have nothing to compare it with.

    Is it strokeplay or matchplay?
    Limited field?
    Is it still played today, albeit not by the pros?

    Hey

    Round robin to me means-

    Everybody plays everybody in that bracket.

      That would make it matchplay then. How do you decide a winner if say three people end up winning the same amount of matches?

        Re: Round Robin

        There are still several versions of round robin played in the present era:-
        - everybody plays everybody, with results based on both net & gross scores
        - one vs the field (as the name suggests)
        - swing team
        - skins game
