Golf Is Like Life
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008Golf is a sport in which a player, using several types of clubs, hits a ball into each hole on the golf course in the lowest possible number of strokes. Golf is defined in the Rules of Golf as “playing a ball with a club from the teeing ground into the hole by a stroke or successive strokes in accordance with the Rules. The origin of golf is open to debate as to being Chinese, Dutch or Scottish. Stroke play is the most common scoring method but there are many others, including match play, skins, speed golf and captain’s choice, which in disc golf is referred to as “doubles” (not to be confused with partner or team play). Golf is unique in having lucrative competition for older players.
