Golf Trivia

Continuing my trivia series with some trivia questions about golf. This probably might be the toughest of them all but still do give it a try. When asked in our team meeting, I got the answers correct for just 2 questions (numbers 4 and 7). We have 2 big time golfers in the team and one of them came up with these trivia questions.

1. How much do Americans spend on golf balls per year?
2. In what city & state does the oldest public golf course in the US reside?
3. How wide is a golf hole in diameter?
4. What was the year of the first US Open Golf Championships?
5. There are four major tournaments a year (Masters, US Open, British Open, PGA Championship). Jack Nicklaus holds the record for the most consecutive majors played. How many?
6. What is the average score among the world’s 50 million golfers?

7. Tiger Woods' streak of consecutive cuts made in PGA tournaments ended just recently. How many cuts had he made in a row?
8. Norman Manly of California holds the record for the most holes-in-one ever by one person. How many?
9. In the Guinness Book of World Records, how far is the longest carry with a drive? And how heavy was the person who did it?
10. What are the chances of making a two holes-in-one in one round?

As always, will leave the answers to these questions in the comments section.
