Yes, you can build a valid handicap index from 9-hole rounds under the World Handicap System. But you cannot simply double your score or use half the 18-hole course rating. The process follows a specific pairing and differential formula that many golfers overlook. I’ve helped dozens of players who only have time for nine holes … Read more
When a golfer tells you they play to a zero handicap, they are saying something important. They are a scratch golfer.
