Team 3 bogied holes 1 and 2 but birdied hole 6. (+1)

Who won please?

1. Scorecard Playoff (Counting Back): This method compares scores starting from the last hole (hole 9) and works backward until a team has a better score on a hole. However:
- Team 1: Bogey on hole 1, par on holes 2-9.
- Team 2: Par on holes 1-8, bogey on hole 9.
- Team 3: Bogey on holes 1 and 2, birdie on hole 6, par on others.

Tiebreaker:
On hole 9, Team 2 bogeyed (+1), while Teams 1 and 3 parred (0). This eliminates Team 2. However, comparing Teams 1 and 3 backward from hole 8, both parred holes 8 through 7, but Team 3 birdied 6 and Team 1 parred it.


Conclusion: Using a scorecard playoff tiebreaker (counting back from the last hole), Team 3 wins because they scored a birdie on hole 6, while Team 1 had a par, and Team 2 was already eliminated due to their bogey on hole 9.
