All future stakes on to win the tournament are depended on the player awarded the Trophy and contains some playoff.
In the event a tournament doesn’t go the specified number of completed holes (usually 72) and the tournament is shortened by PGA officials, the winner who has officially been determined by the PGA will be the winner for wagering purposes. If at least 36 holes have yet to be played, all wagers will be deemed NO action, and bets refunded.

3 Balls
Golf 3 balls are for the said Round only and all 3 players must tee off for action. In case of a tie at the end of the round dead heat rules will apply.

Dead Heat Rule:
For golf wagers containing more than two participants (3 chunks or groups) in which two or more players tie to the same area the dead heat rule is applied as follows:
The wager is reduced according to how many players tie and is then applied to the total odds with the remainder of the stake termed as missing.

As an example:
You wager $100 at odds of 2 and +200 players tie to the same position.
Half the bet is dropped -$50
The half wins and is paid exactly the chances. So $50 wins at +200
If 3 players join to the Exact Same place then:
Two thirds of this stake is lost -$66.66
The remaining third $33.33 wins.
