mayday's Articles in Golf Rules

  • Original Rules of Golf
    would appear that Leith Links, not St. Andrews, was the first ever official golf course, and with the local Scottish populace taking to the game, had become really popular - so much so that money was being put on games, and the original unscrupulous golfer was born. In 1744, the original rules of golf were drawn up, and I suspect that the wording of these rules will illustrate just what I mean by "unscrupulous golfer".
