Vice Captains Cup

VICE CAPTAINS CUP

There are 3 steps to calculating the handicaps for matchplay using one tee.

Step 1: Course Handicaps
For each player, convert their Handicap Index into a Course Handicap

Step 2: Handicap allowances
For individual matchplay, the allowance is 100%.   This gives the Playing Handicaps

Step 3: Handicap difference
Adjust each Playing Handicap so the lowest handicap plays off zero.

Example:

Singles:
Player 1 has index 11.2 and course handicap of 13, Player 2 has index 8.5 and course handicap of 10. Player 1 gets 3 shots and Player 2 plays off scratch.
