Virtual Round Scoring
During a virtual round, the device calculates your score using a
method similar to stroke play. Each shot you take counts as one
stroke. Hitting the ball into the water adds a penalty stroke.
Because there is no putting in a virtual round, additional strokes
are added based on how accurate you are with your approach
shot. You can receive 0 to 3 additional strokes depending on
how close your approach shot is to the tee.
Playing a Virtual Tournament
Before you can participate in a virtual tournament, you must
connect to the Garmin Golf app ( Pairing Your Smartphone ,
page 1 ). Before your standings can be posted on the virtual
tournament leaderboard, you must set your privacy setting in the
app to share your scorecard.
You can compete in a virtual tournament against other golfers
around the world on different courses each week. You can play
in each weekly tournament as many times as you want. All
scores will be posted on the leaderboard.
