Sup ladies and gents.

How does one determine their rating for a round? What is the formula or whatever, my friend and I have been trying to figure it out but we're clueless, and I couldn't find any information on pdga.com

Thanks in advanced playas :D

Quick estimate for SSA = 30 + (length of course in feet / 285) for course with average foliage. Subtract this SSA from your score and mulitply that by 10. Subtract that number from 1000 to get your round rating. That should get you started. If you want a more accurate number, you need to read the info.

Print out this graph then all you need to do is calculate the SSA, find it on the bottom, find your score on the left then your round rating is at the intersection.
