Handicap trophy

The player with the highest "Handicap Total" wins the Handicap Trophy.

The "Handicap Total" is obtained by adding the Handicap (column one above) to the player's points gained in the Flood Cup. 

Handicaps are calculated at: [(1757 minus rating) divided by 100].

For handicapping purposes, John Ryland handicap calculated on 1200, Warren Mayocchi on 1300.
