The game of golf began as far back as the Middle Ages (1400-1450) in the country of Scotland a country located in Northern Europe. The sport was then known as a gentleman's sport and later during the 19th century (1890-1899) the game became popularized throughout Europe including England and then spread to America where and ladies for the first time in sports history could join there husbands in a round of golf. Today women and men enjoy the sport together and there are even women and men's leagues and tournaments some even televised for everyone's enjoyment. Golfing, like soccer, basketball, and football, begins at a young age as early as 8-13 years old when mothers or fathers encourage their children to play team sports in the hopes that they will grow up and be comer leaders as team work is first learned by participating in sporting events like golf. 8-11 year old's are called junior golfers and the statue, in this listing, of a junior putting on the green a small patch of short grass with a small hole in the middle and a flag that fits into the hole until all golfers are on the green and the flag is removed, or discarded and everyone begins to putt and when everyone is finished the flag is replaced and the golfers singular or in a group move on to the tee off or hole in a typical round of golf.
