Gentlemen only, ladies forbidden[edit]
"Golf stands for Gentlemen Only-Ladies Forbidden...GOLF" - it does not. This is a folk etymology. — Paul G 10:17, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I'm curious if you have a citation for that claim. I just hear said etymology for the first time this evening from someone I know offline. Tasunke 06:42, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- You may have misunderstood. He is not claiming that GOLF means gentlemen only, ladies forbidden...he states that it is NOT the source of the word golf. He is right. —Stephen 07:52, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
Done We don't make any such claim. (Perhaps we did in 2004!) Equinox ◑ 16:06, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
French audio is wrong?[edit]
That French audio is for "mini-golf"... Can someone correct that? --2402:800:6105:509A:52EB:F6FF:FE56:8608 15:37, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
