I didn't know you could drop your #1 all the way down. I think it's tennis where you can only move them down 1 spot from their ranking vs. their teammates.
Matchups are determined by coach's selection in any order. Coach A gets first pick and puts out the name of their golfer for match 1. Coach B counters with the name of the opponent from their team. Then Coach B selects their golfer for match 2. Coach A then responds with the opponent. And so on. A lot of thought can go into each selection.
As the top seed, Coach Walker would have had the option to go first or to let the Pepperdine coach pick first. I don't know which way she went.
