  • For Immediate Publication the R&A and USGA WORK WITH
    For Immediate Publication THE R&A AND USGA WORK WITH HANDICAP AUTHORITIES TO DEVELOP A SINGLE WORLD HANDICAP SYSTEM 19 April 2017, St Andrews, Scotland and Far Hills, N.J., USA: The R&A and the USGA are working with golf’s handicapping authorities to develop a single World Handicap System for the game. More than 15 million golfers in over 80 countries presently have a handicap, a numerical index long used as a measure of a golfer’s potential skill level. Handicaps are currently delivered through six different systems around the world. The aim of the proposed handicap system is to adopt a universal set of principles and procedures that will apply all over the world. An extensive review of existing handicap systems administered by Golf Australia, the Council of National Golf Unions (CONGU) in Great Britain and Ireland, the European Golf Association (EGA), the South African Golf Association (SAGA), the Argentine Golf Association (AAG) and the United States Golf Association (USGA) has been undertaken. Golf organisations from different parts of the world have also been engaged with the current handicap authorities for the past two years to help shape the proposed system, which takes into account the many different golf cultures and most common formats of play. Research conducted to date has also reviewed systems and best practices inherent to handicapping, such as course rating and administration. A joint committee led by The R&A and the USGA has been formed, including representatives from each handicap authority as well as the Japan Golf Association and Golf Canada. The joint committee plans to announce its proposals later this year.

  • World Handicap System (WHS)
    World Handicap System (WHS) https://golfcanada.ca/handicapping/ The idea for a new, unified system was conceived by the USGA and The R&A and developed following an extensive review of systems administered by six existing handicapping authorities – Golf Australia, the Council of National Golf Unions (CONGU) in Great Britain and Ireland, the European Golf Association (EGA), the South African Golf Association (SAGA), the Argentine Golf Association (AAG) and the United States Golf Association (USGA). • The World Handicap System launches in Canada January 8th, 2020 and will feature the following: o Flexibility in formats of play, allowing both competitive and recreational rounds to count for handicap purposes and ensuring a golfer’s handicap is more reflective of potential ability. o A minimal number of scores needed to obtain a new handicap. The number of scores needed to establish a Handicap Index is 54 holes from any combination of 18-hole and 9-hole rounds. o A consistent handicap that is portable from tee to tee, course to course and country to country through worldwide use of the World Handicap System. o An average-based calculation of a handicap, taken from the best eight out of the last 20 Score Differentials and factoring in memory of previous demonstrated ability for better responsiveness and control. o A calculation that considers the impact that playing conditions (including course set up and weather conditions) might have on a player’s performance each day. o Daily handicap revisions, taking account of the course and weather conditions calculation. o A limit of Net Double Bogey on the maximum hole score (for handicapping purposes only).

  • Golf's New World Handicap System Designed to Welcome More Golfers
    Golf’s New World Handicap System Designed to Welcome More Golfers USGA and The R&A Release Key Features Golf Canada to adopt all features of the proposed new World Handicap System 20 February 2018, Liberty Corner, N.J., USA and St Andrews, Scotland: The R&A and the USGA announce key features of the proposed new World Handicap System (WHS), designed to provide all golfers with a consistent measure of playing ability globally. The idea for a new, unified system was conceived by the USGA and The R&A and developed following an extensive review of systems administered by six existing handicapping authorities - Golf Australia, the Council of National Golf Unions (CONGU) in Great Britain and Ireland, the European Golf Association (EGA), the South African Golf Association (SAGA), the Argentine Golf Association (AAG) and the United States Golf Association (USGA). The new system will feature the following: • Flexibility in formats of play, allowing both competitive and recreational rounds to count for handicap purposes and ensuring a golfer’s handicap is more reflective of potential ability. • A minimal number of scores needed to obtain a new handicap; a recommendation that the number of scores needed to obtain a new handicap be 54 holes from any combination of 18-hole and 9-hole rounds, but with some discretion available for handicapping authorities or National Associations to set a different minimum within their own jurisdiction. • A consistent handicap that is portable from course to course and country to country through worldwide use of the USGA Course and Slope Rating System, already successfully used in more than 80 countries.

  • Annual Review 2016
    The R&A Review 2016|17 Foreword Welcome to our review of the activities of The R&A for 2016/17. It was a very good year. Our merger with the Ladies’ Golf Union became a reality and a historic arrangement that divided the administration of our sport at the Home of Golf was removed. Our staff and committee structures will now function as one. We actively promote the view that golf will grow as a family-based sport and putting the administration of women’s and men’s golf in the same place makes absolute sense. In recent years, we have invested heavily in the presentation of the men’s amateur and professional events in The R&A portfolio. Now we will invest again in the championships and international matches that have been nurtured, skilfully, with lesser resources in the women’s branch of our sport. At the pinnacle of the professional game The Open and the Ricoh British Women’s Open gave us champions in 2016 who will inspire a new generation of golfers. Henrik Stenson triumphed at Royal Troon to become the first male Swede to win a Major and Ariya Jutanugarn became the first Thai Major winner at Woburn. Stenson followed up by taking Silver in the men’s competition at the Olympic Games in Rio behind Justin Rose while Inbee Park performed brilliantly to win Gold in the women’s event. Golf enjoyed a hugely memorable return to the Olympic Games and the exposure the sport received will help us to reach new participants and audiences for golf around the world.
