Do you know what can happen when golfers use terms incorrectly or which are not defined in the Rules of Golf? Here we submit to you the "Top 10 Misused Terms in Golf."
No. 10, "Through the Green"
No. 9, "Rough"
No. 8, "Fairway"
These three terms have a strong relationship to one another in that they are typically misused when referring to areas of the course. The terms "rough" and "fairway" are actually areas of the course that the Rules call " through the green ."
The issue with "through the green" is that most tend to believe it refers to the area over the back of the green. However, by definition within the Rules of Golf, if an area of the golf course is not a hazard (i.e., a bunker or a water hazard), and is not the teeing ground or the putting green of the hole you are playing, it is "through the green."
So many, check the original resource
