What happens after a player has submitted their scorecard with errors?

When a player submits their scorecard with errors and does not correct them, the score recorded on the scorecard becomes the official score for that round. This principle is rooted in the rules of golf, which state that players are responsible for accurately recording their scores. If a player fails to address errors on the scorecard before it is submitted, those recorded scores stand as the results of the round, even if they do not reflect the actual performance.

In contrast, there are specific scenarios where disqualification may occur, such as failing to sign the scorecard correctly or submitting an incorrect one with intent to deceive; however, a general error that goes uncorrected does not automatically lead to disqualification. Players are not granted additional strokes or allowed to continue without a score once the card is in the committee's hands, as the focus remains on the accuracy of the submitted scores. Therefore, the accepted score as detailed in the submitted scorecard will be recognized, with no adjustments made unless rectified prior to submission.
