I’ve heard that a golf scramble is a popular format for team tournaments and casual play. How exactly does this format work, and what are the main rules players need to follow? Feel free to share a simple explanation for beginners.
 
In a golf scramble, every player on a team takes their shot from the tee on each hole. After everyone has teed off, the team picks the best shot, and then all players take their next shot from that spot. This keeps going until the ball is in the hole. At the end, the team adds up their best shots to get a single score for the hole.
