As a high-handicap golfer, I find the relentless stream of medal comp after medal comp a little bit frustrating - despite having enough shots to contend if I play my very best stuff.
Many amateur golfers believe that the World Handicap System rewards high-handicappers, and in turn makes it more challenging for 'better' players to win club competitions. I don't necessarily buy into that narrative, as I would swap places with a single-figure golfer in a heartbeat, even if it meant I had 'less chance' of winning at the weekend.
