An eclectic competition is carried out in several rounds. You work out your score by taking the best score for each hole and adding the scores for each hole. For example, suppose you score 4, 4, 4, 5, 4, 4, ... on the first round. Then 4, 4, 3, 4, 4, 4, ... Then 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 4, ... For a 3-round Eclectic you would count 4 for holes 1 and 2; 3 for hole 3 (from Round 2); then 4 for each of holes 4, 5, 6 (ignoring the 5s), ... So your Eclectic score is almost always less than each individual round's score.

In golf if a player is disqualified from a competition can their score count towards the eclectic comp?

In golf, if a player is disqualified from a competition, their score typically does not count towards the eclectic competition. The eclectic format usually requires players to complete all rounds in order for their scores to be eligible. Disqualification means the player did not complete the round under the rules, so their scores would not be considered valid for the eclectic. Always check the specific rules of the competition, as they can vary.

To calculate a golf eclectic handicap, you track the best score achieved on each hole over a specified period, typically a season or tournament. For each hole, take the lowest score you've recorded, then subtract the par for that hole to get the score relative to par. The total of these adjusted scores is then used to determine your eclectic score. Finally, apply the standard handicap calculation based on your eclectic score to find your eclectic handicap.
