If the game is interrupted for some reason, the score for each player is the number of holes they have won.

EXAMPLE: If the player A has won 4 holes and player B 3 holes, player A wins the game by 4-3.

In case the game ends in a tie after 18 holes, the score is 1-1.

Stableford score

Formula:

STABLEFORD POINTS = 2 + (HOLE PAR + HANDICAP COMPENSATION - STROKES)

Sand save

Sand save determines that the player has succeeded to recover from a bunker and score a par.

NOTE: The sand save takes into account all holes where you made a bunker mark- ing. To maintain the correct sand save percentage, you need to mark a bunker also on the holes where you did not score a par. Otherwise the Sand save % will show 100%.

The Sand save does not distinguish the number of putts used and thus it will not determine if your sand save was accomplished from a green bunker unless you inten- tionally only mark green bunkers.

Formula:

sANDSAVE% = SAND SAVE MARKINGS / (NUMBER OF HOLES WITH SAND SAVE OR BUNKER MARKINGS) X 100%
