# Shooting 101 in golf

A 101 on a par 72 is 29 over par and 11 strokes worse than bogey golf. On a middle tee rated 70.6 with a slope of 125 it is worth a Score Differential of 27.5, so a golfer whose good rounds are 101 holds an index near 27.5, and a golfer whose average round is 101 holds one nearer 23 to 25.

## Key figures

- A 101 on a middle tee rated 70.6 with a slope of 125 is a Score Differential of 27.5; on a championship tee rated 74.2 with a slope of 138 it is 21.9.
- The benchmark model reads a 101 as 30 strokes over the tour average, 19.5 of them in the long game.

## Scope

- The differentials apply the published World Handicap System formula to typical tee values; the split of strokes is the site’s benchmark model, Broadie’s published shares applied to the strokes over the tour average.
