Golf


 
Sports
Golf is for many an enigma and that because they know very little data about the origins of the sport. Few of you know that this sport was once a respected sport in our country and practiced first class.Totul happens before the 2nd World War in our country when there are 6 golf courses arranged for those who love to practice it.

There are people who support the theory that the bay and would have origins in an ancient Chinese game called ’cita chuiwan’ quote ("Chui"means striking the "WAN" means small ball) and had appeared in Europe during the Middle Ages.

A 2nd theory is that those who support it say about golf that appeared in the Netherlands where in the 13th century practiced a game called ’kolven’ (a game where a ball was hit with a bat curve) is the commemoration of practice catching the killer of Floris V.

Romanians in the reign of Caesar played a game that resembled a golf ball hitting a bat filled with feather-shaped branch. In history books it is mentioned that the Dutch played a game similar to ice their channels in the XVth lea.Diferite forms were popular in France and Belgium in the XIV century.

In 1457 the game was banned in Scotland because they insert the archery, which was vital for defense. However Scottish parliament defied both the church and playing on the beach. Scotland is home to the oldest golf course in the world "St.Andrews," which was used from the beginning of the sixteenth century.

Golf was recognized as a sport by itself in Britain in the eighteenth century when James VI of Scotland and later century James I of England have been drawn to the sport. Royal Club "St. Andrews," the cradle of golf, was founded in 1754 by Queen Victoria and later by her son, who became Prince of Wales in 1863 was capitan of the famous club. During the nineteenth century gutta-percha ball (a substance extracted from the latex insulating plastic and leaves of tropical plants) or "guty", replaced the ball that was stuffed with feathers that had been used for centuries.

General rules of golf

. Golf is the game where a ball is hit with the club arranged aspecial area called "teeing ground", to another area, which includes a cup (hole) called the "putting green". Game goal is to go on the teeing ground ball on the green (flag Cup) in as few strokes. A round is attending the 18th green sites. We have two main modes of play, the first winner is based on that loss holes won (match play), and the second winner is depending on how many shots it took to complete a round (stroke play).
