The Web course for this week is a par 71 as per the in game screen when you load it up. When I entered my scores here on the main site it's listed as a par 72. Causing my scores to be 1 less per round. I entered my 1'st score of 64, which should be -7 Yet it says -8 on the leader board. I look at some of the others, guy at the top shot 64 (same score as me) with a -8 and when you click his score card it shows 63 Top guy Matthew 64 (-8) Scorecard says 63 Tim Brantford 64 (-8) Scorecard says 64 Martin Rundt 65 (-7) Scorecard says 65 Grahm Bunting 66 (-6) Scorecard says 65 Daniel Kelly 66 (-6) Scorecard says 65 edited to add. I emailed commish with a link to this thread as well so it doesn't get lost in the shuffle. I just imagine there will be some confused people when they enter their scores lol

I just imagine there will be some confused people when they enter their scores lol I hit -6 each of the 4 rounds so my result is correct. I agree though that I thought I hit 65 each round but corrected it when inputting on the scorecard as i thought I was just being a dick.

It seems to tally for some not others. When I started to enter I saw the red -8 and knew that was wrong. I backed out, went and loaded up the game, checked my scores for each round and they all jive with what I have written down. 64 -7 for example, shows properly in game. My score card for round 1 has 9 birdies and two bogies, thats -7 no matter what the par is, yet the leaderboard is showing -8 for me lol Even the course description page says its a par 72, yet in game says par 71 And i apologize I wasnt trying to center you out by posting your name, just giving examples of the discrepancy

So do we put in our score and it will automatically change when corrected?

Ok so my score has been reduced to -5 on the scoreboard. When entering my scores I knew I had scored -6 on every round so entered my scores to reflect this. The scoreboard as Tim said was wrong so it has made me enter the incorrect score through no fault of my own. I've already had a DQ in the past and don't feel I should be penalised for something I had no control over. It should have been easy this week to enter my scores but no. Can you fix this somehow please?

I'm going to be controversial here please don't shoot the messenger.
IRL you get the strokes you sign for yes the par on the scorecard was incorrect and trust me I sympathise heavily with all the players that could lose a shot here because of this error. But it clearly states you sign for your strokes in the rules and not your over/under which was only added to aid everyone putting in scores (Ironic That).
If it said Par 172 you wouldn't of put in that you shot 166 strokes would you?
Please don't hate me for the above, I just call it how I see it.
I will point out on Sunday the exemption line was top 19 I knew as per the rules it should of been top 13 I pointed out the error it was fixed and myself and the others that sat 14-19 didn't get an exemption as the rules stated top 10% = top 13.
But hey you might get your shot back I'm just saying why you probably won't IMO.

I see what you are saying but entering my scores away from the playstation on my mobile knowing I have hit -6 on every round. Logic dictates that I would enter 6 shots under the par score on the scorecard for every round . The fact that the scorecard was wrong is no mistake of mine. If it was the other way round and I had gained a stroke rather than lost one there would be an uproar .

There are currently 11 players who could lose a stroke. I suspect these are players who submitted their scores early before the par was updated and could therefore be penalised for this.

Hi danandsons , As mentioned I do sympathise with what's happened to several players this week. And I do see the difficulty with transferring from PSN or other to the website (have to do it myself) I am just saying if you don't get your shot back this would be the reason. If the exact same thing happened IRL you would get a 66 that's all I'm saying even if the courses par was wrong on the scorecard. Which of course would be rare but im sure it has happened somewhere. Lets hope I am wrong but I wouldn't be confident that you will get your shot just as I wasn't at getting my exemption.

This is why the rule states: Enter the number of strokes, not your score in relation to par. Obviously, remembering your score relative to par is easier because we're trained to think that way. Plus, the submit scores form regurgitates your score relative to par as a confirmation while you enter it. I can see why people would enter the wrong score because they didn't want to get a DQ for entering (-7) when the score was really (-6), even though they were sure their total strokes were 65.
Glad to read that the error has been rectified fairly, however.
