2v1 golf format | Golf Monthly

Looks like a society game we have next week may have one game of 4bbb with only three men due to a cry off.

One proposed method was that if the single player wins of the three, he takes the point. If he finishes second, it's a halve. He loses if third.

This doesn't seem ideal to me...

Any suggestions on how to play 2v1 in a fairer style?
