Q: We are using live scoring for a quota tournament. How are players ranked on the live leaderboard?
​

A: The standard method of ranking a live quota leaderboard is by +/- quota.

Sarah Walsh is currently leading the quota tournament above by being +25 over her quota. Sandy Kikla is in second place by being +22 over her quota.

The alternate method is by using trend quota, which is popular in Europe.

When using trend quota, we calculate an "in progress quota", which is defined as: over each hole that a player has played, the quota is (2 - the number of handicap strokes on that hole). For each player, the thru quota is the sum of quotas on holes that he has already played. Then, we calculate the quota points and report the difference between the number of points and the quota on the played holes. See the example leaderboard above. To enable trend quota go to the League/Event > League/Event Profile > Tournaments and Scoring. The option is available at the bottom.
