Total Score of 2 Match Play (100%)

Two players form a side and play against another side. Each player plays their own ball. The combined total of the two player’s scores for each hole is recorded for the side. The Playing Handicap of all four players is reduced by the Playing Handicap of the player with the lowest Playing Handicap, who then plays from scratch. Each of the three other players is allowed 100% of the difference.

The following formats of play below do not have an official recommendation from the WHS for handicap allowances; however, analysis of scoring data shows the percentages below may provide equity amongst the players. Each golf club should determine if these percentages should be adjusted for their events.
