Stroke play, also known as medal play, is a golf format where players compete to achieve the lowest total score over one or more rounds. ⛳ Every stroke is counted, demanding accuracy and consistency. Players must strategize each shot to minimize their score. Think of it as a meticulous math problem, where every calculation (stroke) affects the final answer. Stroke play is the standard format for professional golf tournaments. It tests a player's skill, patience, and mental toughness.
