Many golfers say the pandemic helped to drive the already popular sport into a soaring popularity.
“Last year the sport blew up like crazy with the pandemic, everyone was making the most out of the opportunity, it was great to see all the new golfers,” says golfer David Hamilton.
Golfers say following COVID-19 restrictions and rules is easy on the course.
“It really is easy to keep socially distanced. I’m playing with three people I never met and we are all in our own carts.”
Gocan adds that the golf season is becoming increasingly busy, but hopes it can be a safe outlet for many during the pandemic.
