Golf -The Royal and Ancient Game

Ranked #22,977 in Sports & Recreation, #553,972 overall

Where it began, no one knows. The origin is lost in the mists of time. No one can say precisely where or when golf was born. One thing, however, is certain and that is no other form of recreation has transfixed its practitioners with such engaging appeal.

Today, almost every country in the world has been touched by golf. It is difficult to define and impossible to exaggerate an obsession that can begin at any age and last a lifetime.

No matter where the seeds of golf were sown, without question it was the Scots who gave the game its unique character.
