Case contract

Eighteen-hole match play. holes is a string of hole results: A, B or H (halved). The match closes as soon as the lead exceeds the holes remaining: "X wins L&R" (L lead, R remaining), or "X wins L up" if it closes on the 18th. Later characters are ignored. After 18 holes level: "halved". Unfinished: "all square", "X dormie R" when the lead equals the holes remaining, otherwise "X L up".

Why this case matters

Ryder-Cup style boards and match-play brackets display closure notation like 3&2 and dormie.
