Slope rating
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The slope rating of a golf course, typically in the US, is a measure of its difficulty for bogey golfers. The term comes from the fact that when playing on more difficult courses, players' scores will rise more quickly than their handicaps would predict. The "slope rating" of a course thus predicts that rise. The term was invented by the United States Golf Association.
