(k) A ball is "lost" if it be not found within five minutes after the search for it is begun.
(l) A "match" consists of one round of the links, unless it be otherwise agreed.
A match is won by the side which is leading by a number of holes greater than the number of holes remaining to be played. If each side win the same number of holes, the match is halved.
(m) A "stroke" is any movement of the ball caused by the player, except as provided for in Rule 3, or any downward movement of the club made with the intention of striking the ball.
(n) A "penalty stroke" is a stroke added to the score of a side under certain rules, and does not affect the rotation of play.
(o) The "honour" is the privilege of playing first from a teeing-ground.
(p) A player has "addressed the ball" when he has taken up his position and grounded his club, or if in a hazard, when he has taken up his position preparatory to striking the ball.
(q) The reckoning of strokes is kept by the terms—"the odd," "two more," "three more," etc., and "one off three," "one off two," "the like." The reckoning of holes is kept by the terms—so many "holes up," or "all even," and so many "to play."
2. A match begins by each side playing a ball from the first teeing-ground.
The player who shall play first on each side shall be named by his own side.
