Golf is played around the world. Players
like Jack Nickolas, Gary Player, Sam Snead and
others put the game on the map. Today we watch
with amazement at the skills of players like Tiger
Woods.
Golf is a game of power and finesse. Power
to drive the ball over water and sand hazards and
finesse to put the ball on the green then sink the
longest of puts over sloping terrain. Its
popularity stems from the fact that the game is very
social allowing easy interaction and discussion
among the players while taking a stroll (or ride in
today's games) around a neatly manicured garden-like
field. The fact that it can be played buy two
(twosome), three (threesome) or four (foursome)
makes it an ideal informal business tool to build
trust between customer and businessman.
Golf is played around the world on approximately
thirty-thousand courses by tens of millions of
players, both male and female. Golf tours such
as the U.S. Open allow the best players to complete
around the world for cash prizes. These tours
are attended by spectators and broadcasted on major
television networks.
Golf is a game for all ages and is played by many
well into their 70's. If you would enjoy a
walk or open drive over manicured grass fields while
occasionally releasing life's frustrations by
whacking a little ball with a long stick, golf may
just be your game!
