Afternoon all,
Query regarding medal play. In a normal stroke competition I am aware of scores being adjusted by stableford rule
i.e if you have a quadruple bogey or worse on a hole you are stroking on it will be cut to a treble for handicap purposes and if you are not stroking it will get cut to a double bogey
My question is if you fail to record a score at a certain hole but complete the rest of the round does your score count for handicap purposes?
Reason I ask is that a friend of mine played the Tuesday medal yesterday and had a mare at the 11th. He did not complete the hole but played as normal for the remainder of the medal round scoring on every other hole and is claiming he made the buffer zone as his NR on 11 will get counted as a double bogey on the system.
I reckon he has a point but surely it would require him to have finished the hole even if he got a 25 for the score to count. Can anyone clarify?
