Final Round for National Team

The final round for national team golf competitions, such as the NCAA Men's Golf Championship or the World Amateur Team Championships, generally involves match play between national or collegiate teams after initial stroke play qualifying rounds. For example, the 2025 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championship concluded with teams competing in match play quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals after 54 holes of stroke play. The first team to win three individual matches in a team match advances or wins the title. Similarly, the World Amateur Team Championships (Eisenhower Trophy) feature final rounds where national teams compete for the championship based on cumulative scores.
