Jill advises Liz her handicap is 10 and this is correct.
Jill plays first from the tee. Just before Liz plays, she realises her mistake and advises Jill of her correct handicap of 11. They complete the first hole with Liz winning it.
Before either player starts the second hole, Jill advises Liz she will request a Ruling on Liz’s handicap error/correction. The match continues and is completed with Liz still 1-up.
Before the result is announced the Committee should Rule that Liz is disqualified.  [REF: 4T1039]
