The Duels will feature six teams with each pair competing in a fast-paced nine-hole scramble for a share of a $250,000 prize pool.
In a nine-hole scramble, each player tees off on every hole, and the team selects the best shot from the group. All players then hit their next shot from that chosen location. This process continues until the ball is holed, with only one team score recorded for each hole.
