Chipping-in from rough
white ball disappears at once
swallowed by the hole.
…
You’ve got a birdie
usually is good, unless
it tweets back at you.
…
A greenie in golf
means that your aim is steady
and your ball behaved.
…
Having a low score
is highly desired but
tough to accomplish.
…
Bionic golfers
one putting keeps the pain low
control beats power.
…
Focus, concentrate
soon you will beat us
winners grin in place.
