Positive means the new average is lower; negative means higher. Match the round/course/counting basis before comparing averages.
How the calculation works
Previous average score − current average score. Positive means the new average is lower; negative means higher. Match the round/course/counting basis before comparing averages. This quantity displays up to two decimal places where applicable. Durations round to the nearest second; nonzero subsecond durations are labelled. Changing unit labels does not convert entered quantities.
Example
Worked example: Previous Average Score = 90; Current Average Score = 84. Result: 6 strokes (positive means a lower new average).
Practical tip
Keep the golf round inputs on one clearly defined measurement, scoring or counting basis.
Frequently asked questions
What does Golf Improvement assume?
Positive means the new average is lower; negative means higher. Match the round/course/counting basis before comparing averages.
Are results a recommendation or live sports record?
No. This calculates the stated model from entered values. It does not fetch results, decide a safe training programme or apply unstated competition rules.
How are units, counts and rounding handled?
Actual entity counts must be whole. Selected units label matching inputs and outputs without converting entered quantities. Durations round to the nearest second; percentages to two decimals; stated averages use their documented precision. Very small non-zero values are labelled instead of being shown as zero.
