double bogey
Par plus two
A double bogey is a golf score of two strokes over par for a hole.
If par is four, a double bogey is six.
The term extends the progression from bogey (one over) through double and triple bogey.
I had a double bogey on the seventh hole.
As a verb, to double-bogey a hole is to score one.
