Golf Handicap Calculator (WHS)

Computes your World Handicap System index from 3 to 20 recent rounds: each round’s score differential (113/slope × (score − course rating)), the WHS best-8-of-20 selection with small-sample adjustments, and optionally your course and playing handicap for a target course.

Most recent rounds, up to 20. Score should be the adjusted gross score.

Notes

  • WHS uses your best 8 differentials of the last 20 rounds (fewer rounds use fewer scores with safety adjustments) and truncates the average to one decimal.
  • Adjusted gross score caps each hole at net double bogey before this calculation.
  • Educational estimate for sport and training purposes, not professional coaching or medical advice.
