Ask Linda #182-Posting Canadian scores

Linda

I'll be traveling to Canada this summer and playing some golf. Will I be able to post my scores??

Keep up the good work!

Lulu

Dear Lulu,

You certainly will! The Royal Canadian Golf Association (RCGA) adopted the USGA Course and Slope Rating system in 1995. You should be able to find the Course and Slope Rating for your set of tees at each golf course you play in Canada. If you don’t see the ratings on the card, just ask for them in the pro shop.

If your home course permits Internet posting, and you have access to a computer, you can post your scores immediately. Otherwise, save your scorecards, and then record your ESC (Equitable Stroke Control) scores together with the dates you played and the ratings for each course when you return home.

Have fun in Canada!

Linda
