Total = sum of best 1 or 2 Stableford rounds per calendar month
Season Scoring
Each round is played as Stableford. Your best 1 or 2 scores per calendar month count towards your season total — the rest are used only for handicap purposes.
| Stableford Score | Monthly Counting |
|---|---|
| 1st round of month | Always counts |
| 2nd round of month | Always counts |
| 3rd+ rounds | Highest 2 only |
Handicap Adjustments
Your handicap is adjusted after every round based on your Stableford score. Handicaps cannot go below 0.
| Stableford Score | Adjustment | Zone |
|---|---|---|
| 0 – 17 | +2.0 | Very low |
| 18 – 29 | +1.0 | Below buffer |
| 30 – 37 | 0 | Buffer zone ✓ |
| 38 – 42 | −1.0 | Above buffer |
| 43+ | −2.0 | Exceptional |
A score in the buffer zone (30–37) means you played to your handicap — no change.
Score below it and your handicap rises; above it and it falls.
Holiday Ryder Cup
Players are split into two teams for the holiday. Points are earned through head-to-head matchplay and individual Stableford bonus rounds each day.
Matchplay Points
| Result | Points |
|---|---|
| Win | 1 pt |
| Halved | ½ pt each |
| Loss | 0 pts |
Daily Stableford Bonus
After each day's individual Stableford round, bonus points are awarded to teams based on where their players finish:
| Situation | Bonus |
|---|---|
| Outright 1st place | 1 pt to their team |
| 1st tied across both teams | 1 pt each team |
| 1st and 2nd both from same team | 1.5 pts to that team |
| Outright 2nd place | 0.5 pts to their team |
| 2nd tied across both teams | 0.5 pts each team |
If 1st and 2nd are both from the same team, they receive 1.5 pts for that day
and no separate 2nd place bonus is awarded — it is included in the 1.5.
