How to Decide Ties in Handicap Competitions
The USGA recommends:
Playoff Not Feasible; Matching Scorecards
If a playoff of any type is not feasible, matching scorecards is recommended. The method of matching cards should be announced in advance and should also provide what will happen if this procedure does not produce a winner. An acceptable method of matching cards is to determine the winner on the basis of the net score for the last nine holes. If the tying players have the same score for the last nine, determine the winner on the basis of the last six holes, Then the last three holes and finally the 18th hole. If this method is used in a competition with a multiple tee start, it is recommended that the "last nine holes, last six holes, etc." is considered to be holes 10-18, 13-18, etc.
Stroke Play
In the event of a tie in a handicap stroke play competition a play-off with handicaps is recommended. The playoff may be over 18 holes or a smaller number of holes as specified by the Committee. It is recommended that any such playoff consist of at least three holes
Match Play
If a match is tied after the final hole, the match is extended one hole at a time until there is a winner (see Rule 3.2a(4)), unless the Terms of the Competition state otherwise.
