Divot Digest - September

HANDICAP COMMITTEE

As we head into a new season of golf at Tonto Verde, we thought our members would be interested in seeing posting percentages for reviewed competitions from the previous year. In the chart below, you will see that the Ladies' events had an appreciably higher percentage of players posting 80% or better and almost twice as many players posting 100% of their rounds as male players. Way to go, ladies! Your Handicap Committee is delighted to see that the WGA Board has also voted to require a minimum of 80% posting history for any player to win or place in WGA

Events this season. This is great progress toward ensuring all participants have a level playing field, which is what the handicap system is all about. Note that the event posting percentage reports we are using to tabulate this data only reflect rounds played at Tonto. We encourage all players entering Golf Club, MGA, and WGA competitions and those in Group play to post every round. And we hope to see even better results at the end of next season for those entering reviewed competitions.
