Golf

Golf is a precision club-and-ball sport in which players aim to hit a small ball into a series of holes on a course using as few strokes as possible. The game is typically played on a specially designed course that consists of 18 holes, each with a teeing ground, fairway, rough, and green, along with various hazards such as sand traps and water. Players use different types of clubs, including drivers, irons, and putters, to achieve their goals. Unlike many sports, golf is played on a course that players navigate at their own pace, often taking several hours to complete a round. The objective is to complete the course with the lowest total number of strokes, which requires a combination of skill, strategy, and precision. Golf is recognized for its mental and physical demands, promoting concentration, discipline, and sportsmanship. It has a rich history and is widely played around the world, both recreationally and competitively, including prestigious tournaments such as the Masters and the Open Championship.
