Term for minimum or maximum I do not follow golf, so I did not know that in golf the player with lowest point wins. But what I meant in my comment was that optimum cannot be used to denote both maximum and minimum at the same time, as the OP asked. |

Term for minimum or maximum I believe optimum means the best possible. Even in your example, I don't think it denotes the minimum value. |
