England Golf launched its innovative new app, My England Golf (MyEG), allowing golfers to stay up-to-date with their Handicap Index® as part of the World Handicap System™ (WHS).
England Golf has created the app to provide golfers with the ability to access their Handicap Index® on the go, as well as to easily keep track of their overall playing record on a regular basis.

In order to protect the integrity of the handicap system, please note the following:
- Geo-location technology will ensure pre-registering the intent to post a score can only be done in close proximity to the course where the round will take place
- A time lag will be in operation from the point where intent to play a round is registered to the stage when a score can be accepted
- A golfer’s final score must be verified by a playing partner who has witnessed the round and who holds a World Handicap System™ Handicap Index®.
