What does nassau golf bet mean?

Question

I am a beginner in golf betting. Would someone tell me that what does nassau golf bet mean? Does anyone know about that?

Answer 1

 It's a term used more in the US among players, rather than in traditional betting circles. The front 9 holes make up the first bet, the back 9 the second, and the 18-hole total makes up the third. The point or dollar value for each bet is generally equal and set before the round. A two-dollar Nassau is $2 to the winner of the front 9, $2 to the winner of the back 9, and $2 to the winner of the overall match.
