Changes for 2010 In early December, the National Tour held a meeting of all the Tour Directors. Changes were made to provide a consistent look and feel to all the tours. Below are the upcoming changes for the 2010 season. Tour Handicap Policy The 2010 Tour Handicap Policy will use your last 11 tournament scores, the AGT handicap will come from the best 7 of those 11 scores.
