Golf has been around since some time around the 12th century, or at least in a form that is similar to the modern way it is played. Golf is a game in which players move about on a maintained field with varying grasses, employing clubs named woods, irons, and putters. Golf is one of the few sports, most specifically ball games, that does not use a standardized field, with each course being unique and made of nine or eighteen holes. Due to its popularity, PGA betting has been more common in previous years than ever before.

The object of golf is to move a ball from one end of a course to another, ultimately putting it in a hole using less strokes than set on for the course. The maximum number of strokes that should be taken is called the Par. Anything more than Par is referred to as a Bogey. Golf is one sport in which a lower score is invariably better, which coincides with typical odds when betting on the PGA. While there are many forms of playing golf, the ultimate goal is to put the ball in the hole in as few strokes as possible.

There are two basic forms of golf, as well as a variety of spin offs, that are played regularly and in tournament format. The Best USA Sportsbooks always have bets for both varieties of golf matches. In Match play, two players or teams square off with each other and play each hole as a separate competition. The pair with the lower score wins the hole. If both teams tie, the hole is to be "halved." The game is won by the group that wins more holes. If one team pulls so far into the lead that the remaining holes could not bring the losing team to at least a tie, the game is declared over. Stroke play is the accumulation of points from each hole over the entire course. The player with the lowest score at the end is the winner. This is the most commonly played format of professional golfers, which in turn has the highest instance of PGA Tour Betting.
