Handicaps

The calculation of Playing Handicap takes into account the 1.2 difference in Course Ratings between the Men's White and Ladies' Red tees.

Playing Handicap = [ Player A course  h/c  +  Player B course  h/c  +  1.2 ]   x  50%, rounded to a whole number. Click to see the Foursomes Handicap Look-up table.

The pair with the higher Playing Handicap receives the full difference in the Playing Handicaps.

Important Guidance from England Golf

In foursomes play when partners are not members of the same household:

• Each partner should use their own golf ball, which is only handled by that player. For example the player teeing off from hole 1 is the only one that touches the ball from teeing off through to completion of the hole. The partner teeing off from hole 2 does likewise with their ball. The Rules of Golf permit a partner to drop the side’s ball in taking relief. It is also permissible to drop another ball when taking relief.
• When marking and replacing the ball on the putting green (or anywhere else) this should be conducted by the partner the ball belongs to. The original ball must be used and must not be substituted by another ball.
