Golf is a sport with a lot of history, since it spans back all the way to an early precursor of the game during the days of the Roman Empire. The game also has an incredible amount of etiquette involved too, making Golf a true gentleman’s sport for its very refined qualities as well as the exclusive nature of the game as it is greatly reserved for those with a certain level of privilege. Golf courses appear in many forms, but even the arenas of the game are usually quite luxurious and indulgent. It is not uncommon for golfers to travel internationally to indulge in their favourite sport. Golf in Malaysia is particularly renowned, with many places to choose from such as The Els Club Malaysia.
Speaking of international Golf, perhaps the first real world-travelling golfer was Gary Player, who could’ve had a lot more mainstream victories under his belt if he wasn’t focused on taking part in many varieties of tournaments all over the world. At the end of his career, Gary Player had 9 majors in his 24 PGA wins as well as a hundred victories from other tournaments world-wide.
Many would claim that Jack Nicklaus is the greatest golfer of all time. By age 26, he become one of the biggest names in Golf. He has the most recorded major wins, with 18, and he also placed second in 19 further majors.
It might come as no surprise to you that Tiger Woods is probably the greatest golfer of the modern age. His recorded major wins are four less than Nicklaus, but Woods managed to claim these victories during a more demanding era in Golf, and many veterans claimed that Woods at his best is better than Nicklaus at his. Tiger Woods also has received an immense amount of recognition, and contributed to Golf becoming fashionable and relevant where before his arrival, it was a fairly obscure sport.
