Yep. They call it GOLF because all the other four letter words were taken! Hopefully golfers have switched to using the relatively new “local rule” that allows one a “drop” between the estimated point the ball went OB and the nearest part of the fairway (no closer to the hole) in lieu of hitting another off the tee. You are hitting your fourth shot from that spot. Still a good reason for expletives
