golf
Clubs and holes
Golf is a sport where players use clubs to hit a ball into a series of holes across a landscaped course, aiming to complete each hole in as few strokes as possible.
A round typically covers eighteen holes.
The verb means to play the game: He golfs every weekend.
Golf appears in compounds like golf course, golf cart, and golf club—the last referring to both the equipment and the organization.
