Golf

Golf is a precision club-and-ball sport in which players take turns hitting a small, hard ball into a series of holes on a course using as few strokes as possible. The game is typically played on an outdoor course that consists of 18 holes, each with a teeing ground, fairway, rough, and putting green. Players use various clubs, with the objective of navigating the course and completing each hole in the fewest strokes. Golf can be played individually or in teams, and it is characterized by its emphasis on skill, strategy, and etiquette. The sport is governed by a set of rules and is recognized as an international pastime, with major tournaments such as the Masters, U.S. Open, and The Open Championship marking significant events in the golfing calendar.
