Guides

This guide has been created by Golf Genius Software (GGS) for the purpose of assisting golf professionals and other parties interested in evaluating tournament management systems (TMS).

Using the World Handicap System (WHS), this guide reviews the basic calculation of Playing Handicaps, Playing Handicaps with Different Pars, and Playing Handicaps for specific formats.

Trouble grasping the new WHS Handicap calculations? You're not alone! Read more about how the new WHS differs from the old USGA Handicap System, and just how similar they actually are.

Announced by the USGA and The R&A in 2018, WHS will be implemented starting January 6, 2020. Download our white paper to learn the details.
