Is It Easier To Be A Scratch Golfer Under WHS?

Becoming a scratch golfer has always been the ultimate milestone for many club players - but has the World Handicap System made it easier to get there?

In this episode of Your Golf Podcast by NCG, Tom Irwin is joined by PGA Pro Jack Backhouse to unpack one of the most debated questions in amateur golf: is reaching scratch under WHS actually more achievable than it used to be under the CONGU system?

They also explore the practical side of the journey - what it genuinely takes to get to scratch, the habits and skills that matter most, and whether reaching a handicap of zero is realistically possible for every golfer.
