Show Golf's Charm Rests in Its Many Uncertainties Perhaps there is no sport which plays such queer pranks on its devotees dev-otees as golf. There is nothing cut and dried ttbout Scotia's ancient game. It can't be reduced to an exact science, and therein lies its charm. Tennis, confined as it is to a small plot of ground, is far less likely to produce the unexpected. By this is meant that in tennis one can reasonably expect certain definite results from specific shots.
