The area of the land, in which the game is being played, is referred to as the golf course. The first shot is taken from the tee, generally known as the teeing ground. In this shot, the players are allowed to use a Tee, like a small peg, made of wood or peg, on which the ball is placed to take the shot. It makes the shot easier to be executed. The golf course consists of 12 -18 holes. Most of the courses in the world have 18 holes. A hole is categorized by its “par”. Par is the number of strokes or shots that a competent golfer should take to complete the hole.
