Player is 5 under the css playing off 6.0 but only gets cut .8, is it due to the first initial .6 are 3 x .2 cuts then 2 x .1 cuts = .8 rather than 5 x .2 ??

Hope that makes sense.

Yes Wilson is correct. If you consider it as 5 separate cuts he would go 5.8.....5.6.....5.4.......5.3......5.2

Yes I understand that once you are actually playing off 5.4, but is it while playing off of 6 in that particular round.

The logic is simple.

If it wasn t that way....
Player of 5.6 shoots minus 6 and goes to 4.4
Player of 5.4 shoots minus 5 and goes to 4.9 (-5 being the same score starting from a playing handicap of 1 lower)

This would clearly be wrong...so it's done the other way :thup:
