Maximum Hole Score for Handicap Purposes The maximum hole score for each player will be limited to a Net Double Bogey calculated as follows: Double Bogey + the handicap strokes a player receives based on her handicap for the course being played. Scoring a Hole Not Finished If a hole is started but not completed, a score that the player most likely would have made is recorded. That score may not exceed the maximum score of Net Double Bogey (see definition above) and it is preceded by an “x.” Adjusting a Hole Not Played For an 18-hole score to be acceptable for handicap purposes, a minimum of 10 holes must be played. When a player plays 10-17 holes, a Score Differential is created based on the holes played, and the player’s expected Score Differential for the number of remaining holes not played is added to that value to produce an 18-hole Score Differential. When a player plays between 10-17 holes, they are required to post their scores hole-by-hole so the appropriate Score Differential can be calculated from the holes that were played to combine with the expected score for the holes not played. For a 9-hole score to be acceptable for handicap purposes, all 9 holes must be played. If a player has not played at least 9 holes, the score is not acceptable for handicap purposes. 3. Under the World Handicap System, scores must be posted on the day a round is played. 4. The active posting season for Delaware and Pennsylvania is April 1 to November 14. In other golf associations (e.g., Florida), it is year-round. Score Posting If you play in a Women’s 18-Hole Event, you must turn in your scorecard, even if you withdraw from the event. If you fail to turn in the card, a score equal to the lowest of the last 20 scores you have posted will be posted for you. 14 Scoring and Handicap (including all tournament events) 1.
