What causes a player’s index to be reduced and how long does the reduction remain in place?
That is a good question and a very difficult one to answer. While the process of determining what rounds are tournament rounds and posting the scores as “T” scores is very straightforward, the mechanics that take place behind the scenes are quite complicated. We’ll do our best to summarize for you: • It takes a minimum of two (2) eligible tournament scores before the “T” score reduction process will even begin. • In order to be reduced, the golfer will need to shoot a minimum of two (2) exceptional tournament rounds. One good round will not do it. • In order for a golfer’s index to be reduced, there is a somewhat complex mathematical formula that is used. It takes into account the two lowest eligible tournament scores, the golfer’s unadjusted index, and number of eligible tournament scores.
