That’s not quite the same issue although the confusion is the same. In strokeplay you use unrounded Course Handicap, hence it is best to leave the computer to do its stuff. In matchplay you use rounded CH, so it is relatively easy to do the maths yourself. I assume the issue here was the of...

That is why, for this, just trust the computer.

No I was just using Hobbit’s line “The Whooper at Burger King is £11.99. Add a few bits to that and you’re close on £15 a pop. Mad!

Just watched the Hero Open from India. What a course! We turned over from the LPGA event as they were playing dull golf in a bland field but what a bonkers thing they play on in India. No lead is safe enough, doubles lurking on every shot a real breath of fresh air in the Pro game. Not on my...
