2012Traditions of Golf Challenge Study Guide
2012Traditions of Golf Challenge Study Guide HISTORY SECTION PRE - 20th Century “When did the game of golf start?” Golf originated in the 15th century in Scotland. Mary, Queen of Scots introduced the word “caddie” to the game. While playing golf, she was accompanied by a club-carrying young boy whom she called the “cadet”, or “caddie.” Players would hit a pebble around a natural course of sand dunes, rabbit runs and tracks using a stick or primitive club. “How were golf balls developed?” The first real golf ball was known as the “feathery”. The feathery was a leather sack filled by hand with boiled goose feathers, and stitched up and painted. The feathery golf ball period may have started as early as the 1400’s and ended in the early 1850’s. The arrival of the gutta percha ball in 1848 or “guttie”, as it was called, revolutionized the game and allowed golf’s spread to the masses. The guttie was made from rubber, which could be heated, and formulated into a ball. The next revolution in ball design came around 1905 with the patented "Haskell" ball, which is a composite of a solid core wound with thin strips of rubber. Some modern balls (the expensive ones) are made this way today. This ball performed much better than the gutty and could be made cheaply compared to earlier balls. In 1972 the first two-piece ball was introduced by Spalding. These are more popular with amateurs, as they are more durable and considered to be longer and straighter. Many professionals are still devoted to the softer covered balls, since they prefer the added spin for control as opposed to distance. -

Mickelson started the final round with a six-stroke lead over 2012 FedExCup champion Brandt Snedeker but Snedeker closed the gap to three strokes several times, most recently with a birdie at No. 16. Mickelson provided a bit of drama by almost hitting his tee shot at the drivable par-4 17 th into the water. However, the ball stopped just short of the hazard and Mickelson got the ball up and down for birdie, holing a 14-foot putt that maintained his three-stroke advantage and clinched the victory. Mickelson joined Mark Calcavecchia, Gene Littler and Arnold Palmer as the fourth three-time winner of the Waste Management Phoenix Open. -
