GOLF CARD [1 record]

Record 1 2004-10-07

English

Subject field(s)
  • Golf
DEF

A score or point in a competition.

CONT

A tally of 76 was good enough to win the game.

OBS

In golf, "tally" refers directly to the score card but really means a golfer's score at the end of a game or of a series of games.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Golf
CONT

En présentant une fiche de 68, 4 sous la normale, il était presqu'assuré de remporter le tournoi, même si la moitié des golfeurs n'avaient pas terminé leur ronde; avec une carte (un pointage) de 70, son compagnon de jeu pouvait espérer se classer, sinon deuxième, à tout le moins parmi les boursiers.

OBS

«Fiche», «carte», «pointage» et «score» sont des équivalents de «tally» sans être synonymes entre eux; «score» est un anglicisme au Canada.
