The handicap system will be shut down for five days and will be brought back online on January 6, 2020. Its purpose is to enable as many golfers as possible the opportunity to: • Obtain and Maintain a Handicap Index, • Use their Handicap Index on any golf course around the world, and •Compete, or play recreationally, with anyone else on a fair basis.

World Handicap System The World Handicap System (WHS) aims to bring six different handicap systems together into a single set of Rules of Handicapping, enabling golfers of different abilities to play and compete on a fair and equal basis, no matter how or where they play.Golf is a global sport, with a single set of playing Rules, a single set of equipment Rules and a single set of Rules of Amateur Status. The missing link is handicapping, and after significant collaboration with the existing handicapping authorities and National Associations, the time is right to bring the different handicap systems together.
