Why are there 18 holes in a game of golf?
One hole on each 18 Green A professional golfer once told me there is eighteen golf holes because there is eighteen shots in a bottle of Whiskie! Have you heard the 19th hole? It's a bar, why do you think they call it that! The Old Course at St. Andrews Scotland originally had 22 holes. Musselborough had 6. When the Gutty ball became popular, the shorter holes at St. Andrews became too short for the members of the golf club so it was shortened to 18 holes. This became the standard. ANSWER Shots of a certain drink had nothing to do with the number of holes of golf we play. That is a lovely little story that the Scots invented, probably to appease the people who kept asking. Truth of the matter is, a tradition course is 18 holes because St. Andrews is 18 holes and that is where the R&A is located. The number does not mean anything really as there is no rule that a golf course must be 18 holes. As a matter of fact the British Open between 1873-1889 was played on Prestwick which had 12 holes, St. Andrews with 18 and Musselburgh which had only 9 holes. Even to this day one of my favorite courses in Scotland Shiskine has 12 holes.

18 vs. 36 holes on a golf course?
I'm not sure I understand your question, but here goes. In the 1890's, the guys at St. Andrews came up with a way to determine how many holes there would be on a golf course. The way they did it was this. A bottle of Scotch, drank one shot per hole would last 18 holes. Hence the 19th hole (as the club house bar is referred to) was the "hole" to get a refill. Therefore, it was determined that golf courses be 18 holes.
