History
↓↓
Golf courses originated in Scotland during the 15th century, where people played golf on natural links land along the coast. The game spread across Europe and North America in the 18th and 19th centuries, leading to the design of formal courses with standardized holes and layouts. Today, golf courses exist worldwide, ranging from private clubs to public facilities, and are integral to the sport of golf and recreational culture.
