Golf
is a game of Scottish origin in which each player uses clubs to hit a
small ball into a series of holes on a golf course, which usually has
eighteen holes. Players compete individually or in teams, playing the
golf course in groups of two, three or four persons. There are two basic
forms of play: match play and stroke play. In match play the player who
wins the most holes wins the game. In stroke play the player who has the
fewest strokes wins the game. It is an expensive sport.
