Best score (without disqualifying) after three successful passes (lances)
wins. In the event of a tie score the victor will be determined by an
additional pass. Tie-breaking passes will continue until a clear victor
has been determined.
N.B. A successful pass is one in which both competitors are sufficiently
prepared for engagement and targeting attempts are made. Courtesy and
measuring passes do not constitute a successful pass.
