If you ask most people and the serious players to indicate that the island of Scotland is the birthplace only real and true game and the sport of golf. That's like the sport of golf is played today. This demand is due in large part to a series of specific historical references dating back as mid-1400.

In 1457 King James proclaimed by decree real game "fluteball: and" gowf "were forbidden so that men of Scotland could concentrate on their archery practice.

Leith is considered the birthplace of organized golf and the golf club called the Honorable Knight golfers company was founded by William St. Clair in Leith in 1744 and later became the Company of Edinburgh Golfers. Ten years Later, the Royal and Ancient Golf Company was founded under the same original name, the Society of St. Andrews Golfers. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club runs the British Open and British Amateur roles he assumed in 1919, and since 1951 has administered the rules of golf in cooperation with the United States Golf Association. The R & A also established 18-hole championship standard golf course. In 1764, the Old Course at St. Andrews, consisting of 22 holes with golfers playing 11 holes of round 11.
