How It Works

Why are some scores on the "View All Scores" page highlighted?

The highlighted scores are from rounds that are actively used in your handicap calculation. For more information about the handicap calculation, read below.

What is Hcp Diff?

Hcp Diff is short for "Handicap Differential". This value is a measure of how well you played based on your score relative to par and the difficulty (slope & rating) of the golf course. A lower Handicap Differential means a better round. The differential is calculated using the following formula:

((score - rating) * 113) / slope

How is my Handicap Index calculated?

Your Handicap Index is calculated by finding the average of your lowest 8 differentials from your most recent 20 rounds played. If you have entered fewer than 20 rounds, the number of differentials used in the calculation goes down proportionally, according to the table below.
