Does handicap come int better inward half in golf?

Answer 1

In Golf, a player's handicap reflects their potential ability, which is typically based on their scores relative to the course's difficulty. A better inward half (the last nine holes) can indicate improved performance, often leading to a lower score and a better overall handicap. However, a player's handicap is calculated based on their best scores rather than specific halves of the round, so while a better inward half can contribute to a lower score, it doesn't directly impact the handicap unless it results in a qualifying round.
