Scotland | Sports


Golf is a club-and-ball sport. Players are called "Golfers". Players use different types of clubs (each club is composed of a shaft with a lance (grip) on the top end and a club head on the bottom. "Long" clubs are those meant to propel the ball a comparatively longer distance and "short" clubs a comparatively short distance.)and attempt to hit balls into holes. In the Rules of golf, golf is described 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." It isn't known where golf came from. A golf course consists of a series of holes. The hole is highlighted with the pin and a cup. Typically a round consists of 18 holes that are played in a certain order. The player that does the less strikes to hit all the holes, is the winner. One intresting thing about this sport is that players use motorized carts to drive from one hole to another.
