What does it mean to have a zero handicap?
A person with a zero handicap is also known as a scratch Golfer. The handicap system works as follows, you play a round, you shoot a gross score say 80, you have a handicap of 8, you take this away from your gross score and this gives you a nett score of 72. This is then set against the CSS to see if you get cut or go up. When you have a 0 handicap, you shoot 72, and you take away the handicap which gives a nett score of 72, which is again set against the CSS to see if you get cut or go up. A scratch Golfer is a very good Golfer who will usually shoot level par or better.
