USGA's NEW Handicap Review Tool

This past summer the USGA released Phase 1 of their Handicap Review Tool. The role of the Handicap Committee is made easier when equipped with a tool to identify when the calculated Handicap Index is no longer reflective of a player’s demonstrated ability. Used appropriately, this tool is designed to ensure that players are treated fairly and consistently from golf club to golf club. We will continue to share information once Phase 2 of this feature is released early this year, in the meantime, please revisit the below information to better understand this useful tool and be sure to attend our WHS Webinar on February 5th.

  • Handicap Review Tool Q&A
  • Data Points for Phase 1
  • Comparison to Other Software
  • Written Handicap Review Tool Instructions
  • Video of Handicap Review Tool Instructions
