Golf Australia adds handicap look-up feature, new app on the way

Golf Australia has just released a much-wanted feature as part of their handicapping service.

Golf Australia has finally released a service many golfers across the country have been wanting for some time, a handicap look-up feature.

The feature now allows any golfer with a Golf Link number to check out the handicap and latest scores of up to 100 of their mates via the GA Handicap Look-Up on the Golf Australia website.

“This new feature enables members and administrators to store up to 100 GOLF Link numbers in their profile and to view the GA Handicaps of everyone in their list simultaneously.”

And it seems there is a dedicated handicapping app on the horizon too, scheduled to roll out mid next year.

“The new [Golf Australia handicapping app] app will soon be exposed to members at a group of clubs as the testing phase is expanded. Golf Australia is looking forward to seeing the feedback; we believe this is imperative to providing a service that aligns with the expectations of clubs and golfers.

This phase will run for a couple of months to make sure everyone has a chance to have their say. We will refine the product based on what we hear from the users and release the app to all Australian golfers for free download in the second quarter of 2021.”
