The Skins Game differs from most PGA TOUR golf tournaments for several reasons. Only four golfers are invited to the tournament and the golfers play to win individual holes or "skins" in a match play format. Each hole is assigned a different monetary value and the golfer who wins the hole with the best score outright wins the money for that hole. In the event that two or more golfers tie (which is called "halving") on a hole, the skins carry over to the next hole. In the event that two or more golfers halve the final hole, a playoff begins until one golfer wins a hole outright. For example, in the 2004 Skins Game, the first six holes were worth US$25,000 apiece, seven through 12 were worth $50,000, 13 through 17 were worth $70,000 and the 18th hole, known as the Super Skin is worth $200,000.
