Golf and Wellness
The sport of golf, or at least, a sport that resembled golf, was being played for centuries, but what we still don’t know is exactly when this ball and clubs game stroke for the first time our imagination.
Some people identify the origins of golf in the ancient game of paganica played during the peak of the mighty Roman Empire, others believe that it was the french game called “jeu de mail”, and others are convinced that the dutch game “kolven” was the grandfather of golf. Whatever the case, what is certain is that the Scotsmen were the true pioneers of this game. They have developed this game and played it on the “links” close to the sea, and later on they spread it throughout the world, teaching other peoples to play it. They were also the ones who made the first pieces of equipment for this sport, the first to plan and build the first golf courses and the ones to establish specific sets of rules that are still valid nowadays.
