Calculation of Course Handicap and Rounding
Under the WHS, countries may or may not apply the discretionary (CR – par) item in the calculation of Course Handicap. It is not applied in GB&I while it is in the US and many other countries. The Playing Handicap and any mixed-tee adjustments depend on the formula used for calculating CH.
Another aspect that is different across countries is rounding. The full Course Handicap is used for calculating the Playing Handicap in Scotland while it is first rounded to a whole number in England, Wales and Ireland. The 9-hole Course Handicap is calculated by halving the Handicap Index, but this value may or may not be rounded to one decimal place in the calculation. The applied rounding may result in a difference of a full stroke in Playing Handicaps.
This app contains all the relevant settings for Course Handicaps and adds any applicable mixed-tee adjustments to the Playing Handicap.
Mixed Tee Adjustments
For competitions or friendly games where multiple tees are used, the mixed-tee adjustments to handicaps are added to achieve equity when Course Ratings and/or pars are different. It also applies to fully mixed team formats to allow for rounding and the relative impact of the adjustments to individuals and teams. In this app, whenever multiple tees are assigned to players, the mixed-tee adjustments for medal and/or stableford scoring are added to Playing Handicaps. The adjustment to the Playing Handicaps for a team is the average of the individual adjustments. For a mixed-tee scratch format, enter Handicap Index of 0 for all players to get their mixed-tee adjusted Playing Handicaps.
