On the eve of the HSBC World Match Play event at Wentworth, it may be useful for all of us to brush up on our match-play strategy. Since we've all been watching/playing stroke-play for the past year, a match-play refresher should help to, at the least, put us in the right mind-frame as the HSBC leads into the Ryder Cup. 

My competitive golf experience is mostly limited to stroke-play events. It wasn't until I played in the 2006 San Francisco Championship that I was completely immersed in the intricate form of match-play competition. An "I-can-wing-it-novice", I proceeded to take a match that I had made dormie on 16 and give up the match on the 19th hole. It was a hard mistake to swallow and I'll never make that mistake again. Don't make the same mistake I did. Take Match-Play 101 before, not after, your next match.
