Show Defining Golf. On the terrace of a country club, overlooking a green dotted with sheep, a group of non-golfers were taking tea. A male non-golfer who took his tea through a straw said thoughtfully: "Golf might be defined as billiards gone to grass." "Spleen on the green, I'd call it," said a female non-golfer.. ' "Or the last flicker of the dying fire of athletics," sneered a young football player. "The misuse of land and language," suggested a tennis champion. "No, no; you're all wrong," said a famous angler. "Golf is simply a game wherein the ball lies badly and the player well." Louisville Times. |
