Golf has almost always been known as a "gentleman's game." Golfers of all skill levels can keep the gentlemanly ways of golf intact when they practice proper golf etiquette while on the green. Following a few simple rules of etiquette can make golf much more enjoyable for your round and everyone else playing on the golf course.

My dear friends, we are to talk about how to practise golf etiquettes. Here are some instructions below. You would never know how they would benefit you unless you follow them.

1.        Start to practice good golf etiquette on the first tee box by allowing higher-handicap players to hit the ball first. You can also toss a tee on the ground to determine who goes first. On subsequent holes, the player with the lowest score on the previous hole tees off first.

2.        Stand perfectly still and keep quiet from the time each golfer addresses the ball until the ball is in the air. Sudden movement and loud noises will disrupt a golfer's swing.

3.        Allow the person farthest from the green to hit first for approach shots to the green. Make sure the golfer has plenty of room to hit, without fear of a bad shot striking another player.

4.        Look for and repair divots (small indentations) on the green once your ball has made it to the green. Fix a divot by placing the divot-repair tool outside the hole and pulling some of the grass toward the middle of the divot. Flatten the repaired divot with your putter head to make it level with the surrounding grass.

5.        Mark the position of your ball with a small, round ball marker and pick it up, so it is not in the way of other players. You can use a coin or get a plastic ball marker.

6.        Pay attention to the line other players' putts will follow to the cup. Don't walk between another player's ball and the cup. If your ball is close to the same line as another player's, use your putter head to measure the distance and temporarily move the ball mark to the side.

7.        Return the flag to the hole once everyone has made his putts.
