To me, #GOLFIS many things, ranging from the Good, to the Bad and even to the Ugly. And since golf is uniquely individual, each individual’s Good, Bad, and Ugly differs as well. One person’s Ugly could be another person’s Good. One person sees a gap in the trees and another sees a pitch out to the fairway. Each person brings something new to the table, but there is the one great equalizer: Old Man Par. The best golfers in the world focus on nothing but beating Old Man Par. And that is what makes golf special: it is the only game that can pit you against an inanimate object, against something that exists only in our minds. That is what makes golf so difficult, but also so beautiful. It is the only game played in complete solitude. You’re not playing against the course, or your playing partner. You’re simply playing against Old Man Par. If only it was that easy, right?
