What are the fourball betterball handicap (qualification) rules?

Once a fourball betterball score is returned to the WHS portal by club software, it looks for some specific benchmarks. These are:

• A pair must have scored at least 42 points or six under par.
• One of the pair must have scored on a minimum of nine holes.
• That player’s round will then be upscaled – with points for their unplayed holes added based on their playing partner’s score.
• That will be 0 points if there is no score, one point if their partner has scored a point on a hole, and 1.5 points added where their partner has scored two or more points on a hole.
• If the total score of that player is then 36 or more points, a score differential will be calculated and the score will be added to the player’s record. If it does not, it will not be acceptable for handicap purposes.
