Some Playday Reminders – Again

 

STARTING PLAY

Be at your starting hole on time. Do not start early. Play at a good Pace of Play. 

 

SCORECARDS

Record Gross score and Putts on the scorecard. Please circle Chip-ins, but only if you signed up to participate in the pots.

 

At the end of the round, subtract your handicap listed on the card from your gross score to record your net score for the day. Total your putts. Competitor and Marker MUST BOTH SIGN the scorecard.

 

RECONCILING GOLF GENIUS

Once you have agreed that your printed scorecard is correct, the person keeping scores in Golf Genius for the group should read each score out loud, hole by hole (not just totals) as players check their score on the scorecard to ensure accuracy. Make sure these both agree!

 

If there is a discrepancy between Golf Genius and the scorecard, playday scorecards remain the official record of scores.

 

 

 

AFTER PLAY

ALL scorecards must be turned in immediately after play, including for those Withdrawing from the round. Turn in to the Ladies Locker Room.  For 18 Hole League there will be a box on one of the tables to place your card (Marked 18 Hole Scorecards).

 

WITHDRAWING

When a player withdraws, scoring should STOP on both the paper scorecard and in Golf Genius.  LEAVE BOTH BLANK!  Golf Genius scorers should immediately stop entering scores for a W/D player.  Do not enter “X” in Golf Genius, EVER.  Leave it blank!  Golf Genius will provide a pop-up message that notifies the scorer that not all scores have been entered.  Select “Next Hole” or “Continue” for each hole thereafter. If a player withdraws but chooses to stay out on the course and play, no scores are recorded, and player should pick up at their max. Scorecards for Withdrawn players must still be turned in and marked W/D. If the player wants to record the round in GHIN, they must do so on their own as KWGA will not upload W/D scores to GHIN.
