DAY 1
Over the next 2 weeks Scottish Golf are running a social media campaign focusing on the key features of WHS, helping golfers across Scotland better understand the new system for handicapping ahead of it launch next month.
We will be posting all the information on this blog page in small daily snippets to allow all golfers to understand the changes in the handicapping system.
With WHS coming into play in Scotland on 2nd November 2020, many golfers across Scotland will be asking "why are we moving to a new Handicap system?
WHS aims to provide maximum enjoyment for all who play the game. The new system will enable players of any ability, from anywhere in the world, to play and compete with others on a fair basis. This will be the case whether in competition, or during a casual round.
WHS will encourage as many golfers of differing abilities, genders and nationalities to be able to take their handicap to any course in the world where they will be able to compete on a fair basis.
Another key aim of WHS is that it will indicate, with accuracy, the score a golfer is reasonably capable of achieving on any course around the world, playing under normal conditions.
