God I love Golf! See #23 too!

By gordo - Last updated: Monday, August 4, 2003

I got this from a friend through email. I think this sums up why I love golf and little Alex shall learn the sport despite the rolling eyes of my wife.

Ever wonder why golf is growing in popularity and people who don’t even play go to tournaments or watch it on TV? These truisms may shed light on reasons why.

23. This is a slice of golf history I thought you might enjoy. I never knew why there were 18 holes before this. Why do full-length golf courses have 18 holes,
and not 20, or 10 or an even dozen? How many of you golfers know the answer to this one?

During a discussion among the club’s membership board at St. Andrews in 1858, one of the members pointed out that it takes exactly 18 shots to polish off a fifth of Scotch. By limiting himself to only one shot of Scotch per hole, the Scot figured a round of golf was finished when the Scotch ran out.
