The Royal & Ancient Golf Club was founded in 1754. The club set a number of standards for the game, including the 18 hole round. Since the 1700's, St. Andrews has been considered the ancestral home of the game.
I have heard that the 18 holes in Golf came from there being 18 shots in a fifth.
Hi there, the answer is that it was in Scotland. That's how long it took to finish a bottle of wiskey- 18 holes! But seriously, the 18 hole golf course was created in St. Andrews in Scotland around 1764. But this didn't become the standard until the 1900's!
but i dunno about you but it probably take me a wee bit longer than 18 holes to finish a bottle of glendullan!

Technically 18. Realistically 54 would be the lowest round, that is 18 birdies, one on each hole.
Holes 10-18 during an 18 hole round of golf.

When two or more people end up tied for the lead in a professional golf tournament, there is what as known as a playoff. The playoff is usually a sudden death one hole playoff, with the winner being the person who has the lowest score on that particular hole, if the scores are tied the process continues until the tie is broken. In the men's major championships there are different ways of breaking ties. In The Masters it is a sudden death playoff, in The US Open it is an 18 hole Monday playoff, in The Open it is a four hole playoff and the USPGA Championship is a 3 hole playoff. In Amateur golf, say at your club at the weekend, ties are usually broken with the best nett score on the back 9, then best back 6,3,2 or 1 depending on how close it is.
All golf majors are played in 18 hole rounds.
You would add up all the scores on each hole then divide it by the number of competitors, then rank them going from easiest to hardest.
