Lowest gross
Straight strokes, added up, no handicap anywhere on the card. Only a complete card counts.

How it’s scored
- Gross strokes per hole, no shots, no net column.
- Eighteen holes added up. Lowest wins.
- A round with a hole missing is not a low score, it is no score — it sits under the finished cards, unranked.
- Your stableford and net birdies still run off the same round at the full handicap.

Handicaps
None. The allowance is nought rather than a hundred so nobody can read it as some shots.

The fine print
Why does an unfinished card show at all?
Hartley has a round played and no card to rank. He sits under the three who finished rather than vanishing.
Does a gross day cost me in the order of merit?
No. Stableford and net birdies are counted from the same round off the full handicap.
Is there a net stroke play?
Net is what stableford is for on a trip: a blob costs one hole rather than the round. Gross is here for the man who wants his strokes counted.
