If you're a child/teen/etc. and ever upload a picture onto facebook where you're playing golf know that you're creating an image of a rich spoiled bratty child (if that's your thing then go for it, I mean some people may need to create such an image for reasons unknown).
golf is a social thing and any competition is incidental imo. two dudes went for a leisurely stroll one day and were hitting a rock ahead of them with a stick, and so was born golf
sports is victory in things that aren't really lame
