Which tee?

There are different teeing areas which are marked by different colour tee boxes on a course.

Competition tees (white), men's tees (yellow), women's tees (red) and some clubs are introducing blue tees for veterans and juniors.

The white tees are usually the furthest from the hole and the blue tees the nearest.

The stroke index for a round will be different depending on which tees you are playing from.
