Thank You !!

The common meaning in golf for getting up and down means that a golfer missed his greens in regulations but still managed to make par. Usually when he or she makes a mistake and hits into a greenside bunker. So a 3-on 1-putt on a par 4 meant that the golfer got up and down.

Other meanings for up and down could mean anything! LOL

get the ball up onto the green with one stroke, and then down into the cup with another
