The format for the 43 teams was Four-Ball stroke play, often referred to as better ball. In Four-Ball, Competitors play as partners, each playing their own ball. The lower score for the partners is the score for the hole.  If a player is confident that their score will not count on a particular hole, they are not required to finish the hole, but one team member must hole out.

The committee for MSGA One-Day tournaments uses the USGA recommended method for breaking ties when a playoff is not feasible, outlined in Committee Procedures 5A(6) of the Official Guide to the Rules of Golf.
