8 golfers playing 5 round 2015-06-11
From Simon:
We have 8 golfers playing 5 rounds, and want to make the pairings as even as possible (ie all play against everyone else)

2 of the players however must play together each day - due to a buggy being required.

If anyone has a formula to work this out I'd be appreciated

Revisiting 8 golfers in two foursomes 2014-08-19
From steve:

I noticed you had an answer on how can you put 8 golfers in even foursomes over 7 games so that everyone plays with everyone equally. However the formula showed the following sequence that was used but did not go past the second day. Can you change the 0s and 1s into the numbers 1 to 8 instead. Here is what you have written:
Day 0 : (0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1)
Day 1 : (0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1)
Day 2 : (0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1)
Day 3 : (0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1)
Day 4 : (0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0)
Day 5 : (0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0)
Day 6 : (0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0)

Thank you so much for your anticipated help.

8 golfers for 7 rounds 2014-03-11
From Brian:
We have 8 guys playing 7 rounds of golf. We want to play with each player as a partner only once, sounds simple but i can not come up with the match ups beyond the first 4 matches. I believe the numbers should work perfectly where each player can play with another as a partner only once each throughout the week. Please help.

Golf for 2 groups of 4 for six rounds 2012-11-21
From Andy:
You have very kindly responded to a couple of questions I asked previously and I have tried to find the answer to my current query on the various links etc. My question: There are 8 of us going on a Golf Tour and we will be playing 2 groups of 4 for six rounds of golf. Is there a suitable schedule that works to ensure everyone plays with each other the same number of times (or as close as possible). Many thanks again for your help.

Golf: 8 players over 4 days in 4-balls 2012-05-03
From JimB:
I cannot seem to get this to work. Previous answers cover 2-balls, but we are 4-balls.

What we really want is for each player to play with each other, at least once and no more than twice.
Ideally, each would also play equally in the first and the second 4-ball of the day.

8 of us are going on a golf trip next month. We are golfing 5 rounds. Is there any way that everyone can play with each other at least twice? I have been trying to figure it out but it always seems that someone plays with another golfer only once.
