Each hole begins with a tee shot. Opponents must play the holes in a specific order, following the numbering, using only 14 clubs during the round.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Classic golf has special rules for playing and for the behavior of athletes on the course.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mini_golf\"><\/span><b>Mini golf<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mini golf is a form of active recreation that does not require special physical training, significant equipment costs, or expensive courses. Despite this, it is considered a separate sport, with world championships held.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to traditional rules, players must complete each hole with the fewest number of strokes. Mini golfers use only one club \u2014 a putter, which allows them to make \u201crolling\u201d strokes on artificial turf.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An exciting adventure into the world of excitement &#8211; <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/freespin.com\/games\/slots\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">free slots<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Speed_golf\"><\/span><b>Speed golf<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main difference between speed golf and classic golf is that participants need to move quickly from hole to hole, finding a balance between speed and accuracy. Results are evaluated based on both the number of strokes played and the time taken to complete the round. This sport originated in California in the 1970s and is popular in North America, Europe, and Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Street_golf\"><\/span><b>Street golf<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is an informal version of golf that combines elements of traditional golf and street games. The main idea is to hit the ball into \u201choles\u201d (targets) in urban areas\u2014streets, parks, squares\u2014with the minimum number of strokes. Players can use regular golf clubs or adapted equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Footgolf\"><\/span><b>Footgolf<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sport that originated from the combination of golf and soccer. Players must complete an 18-hole course, trying to hit a size 5 soccer ball into each hole with the fewest number of strokes. The game originated in Europe in 2006 and is regulated by the International Footgolf Federation (FIFG).<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Virtual_golf\"><\/span><b>Virtual golf<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A game that uses a golf simulator\u2014a high-tech computerized system that allows you to practice golf indoors, simulating the real game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the ball is struck, the golf simulator system records a huge number of indicators and transmits all the data to the control program. The program, in turn, processes and fully analyzes the data received, after which it displays the results on the screen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Game formats<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two main formats in golf: match play and stroke play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Match play<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In match play, two players or sides compete for victory on individual holes. Opponents win a hole if they hit the ball into it with fewer strokes. A match is won when a team leads by more holes than there are left to play.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_match_play\"><\/span><b>Types of match play<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Single \u2014 a single match between two players.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trios \u2014 one player plays against two others with one ball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foursome \u2014 a \u201c2\/2\u201d format where partners take turns playing with one ball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Three-ball \u2014 three partners play individually against each other, each with their own ball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fourball \u2014 each golfer on teams of two partners plays with their own ball.
