Golf, oh sweet and deceptively tricky golf. Is it truly the toughest sport to play? Well, it's like trying to thread a needle while riding a roller coaster, folks. It's not just swinging a club and walking in fancy pants, but it's a game of precision, patience, strategy, and did I mention a tiny ball that seems to have a mind of its own? So yeah, it might not be as physically demanding as wrestling a bear, but when it comes to skill, golf is like the Everest of sports!

In the world of PGA, the time it takes to play 18 holes can vary greatly. It usually ranges from approximately four to five hours, depending on the pace of the players and course layout. Factors such as the skill level of the players, the weather, and even the number of players in a group can also affect the duration. However, during professional tournaments, it can take longer due to the added pressure and higher stakes. So, when you're heading out for a round, remember to pace yourself and simply enjoy the game!

So yes, some do flip their golf caps around, but it's not a widespread trend in the golfing community.
