Golf Handicap Calculator

Calculate your golf handicap index using the official World Handicap System (WHS) formula.

Understanding Golf Handicaps

A golf handicap is a numerical measure of a golfer's potential scoring ability. It allows players of different skill levels to compete fairly against each other. The World Handicap System (WHS) provides a consistent method for calculating handicaps worldwide.

How It Works

  • Recent Scores:Enter scores from your last 20 rounds
  • Course Rating & Slope:These measure course difficulty
  • Calculation:Based on your 8 best scores from last 20 rounds

Important Considerations

While this calculator provides accurate handicap calculations using the WHS formula, for an official handicap you should:

  • Register with your local golf association
  • Submit scores through official channels
  • Play enough rounds to establish a reliable handicap
  • Keep accurate records of all your scores
