To earn a USGA Handicap Index, a player must report all scores for all 18-hole rounds during the official season when at least 13 holes of an 18-hole round are completed (or 7 holes for nine-hole rounds) and for nine-hole rounds, both home and away, played in either match or stroke play. Accurate and faithful score reporting are the most important parts of a sound handicap system.
