Got Green?

Golf Digest calculated that there were about 32,000 golf courses in the world. Over half of those courses are in the United State of America. The sport of golf was heavily dominated by the British prior to WWI. However, since then the sport has become increasingly more popular in the United States and we have produced a far greater number of professional players. Another interesting note is that the first golf course in China was built in the 1980s. Since then, there have been over 200 courses built there.
