Dear Linda,
On the weekend, our club was hosting Round 1 of our annual
club championship. The club championship runs over four rounds. One player
marked his handicap on his card as 15 when it should have been 14. He signed
his card at the end of the round and submitted it. Is he disqualified from both
the gross and net events?
Kind Regards,
Lou
Dear Lou,
The player is disqualified from the net event, since the
handicap he recorded gives him one more stroke than the number of strokes he is
entitled to receive [Rule 6-2b].
The player is not disqualified from the gross event
[Decision 33-1/13].
Linda
