Murphy's Laws of Golf

By Henry N. Beard

Every golfer knows the feeling: Anything that can go right will go WAY, WAY right. To hit a truly awful shot, mere incompetence is not enough...you really need an audience . Back in the early days of the game, when the first rules were written and the basics of etiquette formulated, there appeared a series of shrewd and rueful observations about golf that were nearly always attributed to a mysterious individual named Murphy. As time passed, these canny precepts found their way into the culture at large--but the roots of Murphy's Laws clearly lie in this sport that's tailor-made to expose the fundamental malevolence of the cosmos. Here they are, collected--for all lovers of the links to ponder when they're in the rough!
