What is 5 above par as an integer?
In golf, "par" refers to the standard number of strokes that an expert golfer is expected to take to complete a hole or course. If something is "5 above par," it means it is 5 strokes over that standard. Therefore, if the par score is, for example, 72, then 5 above par would be 77. As an integer, 5 above par can be represented simply as the sum of par and 5.

So if you had a 25 handicap you would add 1 to par on the 11 easiest holes and add 2 on the 7 hardest holes.So a double bogey on the #1 handicap hole would score like a par and score two points, a par on the #18 handicap hole would score like a birdie and score three points, while a triple bogey on the same hole would score like a double and score zero.See Rule 32.
