We recently received a letter in the Golf Monthly offices about the World Handicap System (WHS) in relation to golf's four-ball better-ball format that had us all scratching our heads and saying, “That can’t possibly be true... can it?”
I’m not quite as up on all things Rules and handicapping as I was, having passed that particular baton on to someone else a year or so ago, but I had a vague recollection that my colleague Rob Smith had mentioned something about this very subject, although I couldn’t remember the details.
