Top professional golfers earn large prize money and big sponsorship deals, and golf is also an expensive sport to play, which adds to its wealthy image.
2.Why do golfers yell fore?
Golfers shout “fore!” to warn people that a ball is heading their way. The word probably comes from “before” or “forecaddie,” a helper who stood ahead to spot balls.

Golfers usually wear a glove only on their lead hand, which does most of the gripping, while the other hand is left bare for better feel.

Golfers come in all body types. Walking many kilometres during a round and training for flexibility can help, but golf doesn’t require a particular build.
6.Why do golfers wear one glove?
The glove goes on the lead hand, which holds the top of the club and needs the most grip, while the bare hand helps with feel and control.

Yes — golfers are allowed to wear sunglasses, and many do to protect their eyes and reduce glare.

Most golfers take off their glove for putting, because a bare hand gives a better feel for the delicate, gentle strokes needed on the green.

10.Why do golfers say fore?
“Fore!” is a warning shout that a ball may hit someone. It likely comes from the old Scottish use of “before” or “forecaddie,” a person positioned ahead on the course.
