Beschreibung
Golf began as a simple game played on open Scottish ground. But over time, it became a symbol of private clubs, expensive courses, business networks, political power, luxury resorts, and social status. Why Golf Became a Rich Man's Game explores how a quiet sport became connected to class, wealth, and influence. From early Scottish links to private clubs, gentlemanly etiquette, television, sponsorship, and modern golf resorts, this book explains how the world around golf became larger and more expensive than the game itself. This is not a book that attacks golf. It is a clear and thoughtful history of how golf gained its elite image, why that image still exists, and whether the sport can become more open and accessible in the future. Golf became a rich man's game not because the ball was expensive, but because the world built around the ball became expensive.
