what are the golf terms for under par
In golf, par is the pre-determined number of strokes that a scratch (or 0 handicap) golfer should require to complete a hole, a round (the sum of the pars of the played holes), or a tournament (the sum of the pars of each round). golfer's score is compared with the par score. If a course has a par of 72 and a golfer takes 75 strokes to complete the course, the reported score is +3, or three-over-par, taking three shots more than par to complete the course. If a golfer takes 70 strokes, their reported score is â2, or two-under-par.
