Handicapping in Squash
Wagaman, John; Fletcher, Michael
Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, v40 n1 p3-6 Spr 2018
This article considers how a handicapping system should be devised for squash. It looks at the American scoring system, and whether it is possible to have a fair system of handicapping. We consider "fair" from a perspective of expected number of rallies won and probability of winning.
