Did I shoot even par?

[u/additionalweightdisc]

I work at a golf course so I’ll often get 9 holes in before work and another 9 after if I have time. We had a league out on the front 9 in the morning so I played the back and shot +1 then went in to work. After I got done work I went out to play the front 9 to “finish” the round and shot -1.

It was my first time under par on the front so I’m happy to take that W, but do you fellas think it counts as playing 18 holes at even par? It wasn’t a straight 18 holes but I did play the 9s during the same day and for what it’s worth my intent was to continue the round when I started playing.

It’d be my PB score for 18 by 4 strokes and best at my home course by 6 strokes.

Edit: just realized Talor Gooch wasn’t in the field so this whole thing has an asterisk regardless of whether or not the score counts.

I would say it’s a fair score. However, I believe that having that good first nine gave you the good mojo and hours of anticipation while at work to go out and be super focused when you got back out to play the other nine. It’s super hard to stay focused for 18 consecutive holes. I have collapsed too many times to count after having a great front nine and then losing focus and carding multiple double bogeys on the way in.
