How does WHS work?

The WHS calculates your Handicap Index (a measure of your golfing ability) using your best 8 scores from your last 20 scores. It also factors in the impact that abnormal course and weather conditions might have on a player’s performance.

From there, it will enable you and every golfer to compete fairly across any golf course in the world by converting your Handicap Index, according to the difficulty of a golf course and the tees that are being played from, to a Course Handicap.
