Golf

Golf is a precision club-and-ball sport in which players use various clubs to hit balls into a series of holes on a course in as few strokes as possible. The game is typically played on an outdoor course, which consists of 18 holes, each with a teeing ground, fairway, rough, and green. Players aim to complete each hole by hitting the ball from the tee into the hole, using the fewest strokes. Golf is known for its emphasis on skill, strategy, and etiquette, and it can be played individually or in groups. The sport originated in Scotland in the 15th century and has evolved into a popular global pastime. Golf is governed by a set of standardized rules, and professional competitions occur worldwide, including prestigious tournaments like The Masters and The Open Championship. The game is enjoyed by players of all ages and skill levels, emphasizing physical and mental challenges.
