Etymology of GOLFED

The word "golfed" is derived from the noun "golf", which refers to a sport played on a course using clubs to hit a small, hard ball into a series of holes. The term "golf" originated in Scotland in the 15th century, and its exact etymology is uncertain. There are several theories on its origin:
