    I was playing away the other day and had a poor score.
    My handicap was 9.4 before playing.
    I am playing a competition tomorrow.
    I have checked my handicap on masterscoreboard and it says my handicap is still 9.4.
    I checked the away club masterscoreboard and my score registered and I was well under the standard scratch score.
    What should I do?
    Can I amend this myself?

    I was in the same situation the other day I had 2 away scores that weren't processed but on golfnet.ie my handicap hadn't budged. So I just played off whatever handicap golfnet read. As far as I know that's the only official handicap.

    Yep that's the way, you cut yourself if you have an unprocessed away good score (GUI 10.6, you should get a cut of - 0.3, so next round you play off 10.3), but you just play off your official handicap if you have an unprocessed bad score (GUI 10.4 but get a +0.1, still play off 10.4 until it's processed)

    Why does it take longer. Is it my clubs handicap secretary that needs to process it?

    Or the away club are slow to send it through.
    Could be delayed on either side.

    FYI when applying a cut before CSS is known, you must use SSS, which is always printed on the card of the course.

    Some clubs are brutally slow at updating scores - I have an instance where I was due a cut but the away club never processed it! Handicap sec said there was nothing he could do without the card.

    Same happened to me, that cut would have taken me to my lowest handicap ever but they didn't send the score through.
    Won't ever play an open at that club again and I've told them it.
