Then we use the 8 lowest differentials according to this USGA table:
We add the lowest 8 differentials together, which are
16.3,
16.6,
16.9,
17.5,
18.3,
18.4,
18.5,
18.7,
and get 141.2.
Then we take that total and get the average differential score 141.2 ÷ 8 = 17.65
Lastly we lop off all numbers past the first decimal point and we get
Then we take that total and get the average differential score 141.2 ÷ 8 = 17.65
Lastly we lop off all numbers past the first decimal point and we get
