The number of strokes in a game do not equal the number of points. Points are tallied by placement.
EG.
1st place = 100 points
2nd = 99
3rd = 98
4th = 97
If there is a tie for a placement everyone who ties gets the same number of points. And the next placement starts where the placement count would have been if there was no tie.
EG.
1st = 100
2nd= 99
2nd= 99
2nd= 99
5th= 96
6th= 95
6th= 95
8th= 93
So, as you can see the number of strokes only comes into play for placement in the tournament and the placement determines the points.
I hope that helps.
