Golf

Golf is a precision sport in which players use clubs
to hit a small ball from the tee to a hole on the course,
with the aim of completing the course in as few strokes as possible.

A standard golf course consists of 18 holes with varying length and level of difficulty.
The objective is to complete the course in the fewest possible strokes,
commonly referred to as playing at “par” or better.

The game combines technique, strategy, and concentration.

Players may use a maximum of 14 different golf clubs,
each designed for specific types of shots, such as drivers, irons, and a putter.
The game is played with a golf ball,
and equipment is typically carried in a golf bag and often supported by a golf trolley.

Golf is played outdoors on large, scenic courses and can be played individually or in teams.
There are specific rules that apply when playing golf.
