In the absence of special rules,
singles, threesomes or foursomes should have precedence over and be
entitled to pass any other kind of match. A single player has no
standing, and should give way to a match of any kind.
Any match playing a whole round is
entitled to pass a match playing a shorter round.
If a match fails to keep its place on
the course and loses more than one clear hole on the players in front,
it should allow the match following to pass.
