Tournament - or "Tour" - Handicap

You can also see how a player's "Tournament Handicap" is calculated
Click on the Tour Handicap box and a description of how the handicap is calculated appears.

Tour Hcp = (Gross Hcp X %Allowance) + Handicap Adjustment.

For more information, please refer to Player's Tournament Info.

NOTE: The card where you enter the scores hole-by-hole shows a "Crs Hcp" (Course Handicap). This is the handicap used for determining a golfer's adjusted gross score for handicap purposes and has nothing to do with how strokes are applied on the card.
