The World Handicap System™ (WHS™) came into effect on 2nd November 2020 and replaces the handicapping system maintained by CONGU in order to unify the six different structures currently in operation throughout the world of golf.
Developed by The R&A and USGA in close coordination with existing handicapping authorities, WHS™ will provide all golfers with a consistent measure of playing ability, with handicaps calculated in the same way wherever they are in the world.
With one single, global system in place for the first time, golfers will be able to obtain and maintain a Handicap Index® and use this on any course around the world.
