score for the final nine (9) holes of the Game. If any ties remain, the better

entrant with the lowest combined score for the final six (6) holes for such
Game. If any ties remain, the better scoring entrant between or among the
remaining tied entrants will be the entrant with the lowest combined score for
the final three (3) holes for such Game. If any ties remain, the better scoring
entrant between or among the remaining tied entrants will be the entrant with
the lowest score for the 18th hole (9th for nine hole games) in such Game,
