Golf's history stretches back over 500 years to the coastal links of Scotland, and its deepest trivia goes far beyond knowing who won the last Masters. Only four condors (four strokes under par on a single hole) have ever been officially recorded in the history of the sport — that's the level of obscurity this quiz operates at.
Each round presents 10 randomized questions from a pool of 50, with four multiple-choice options and instant feedback after every answer. Your final score comes with a performance tier and shareable results.
You'll explore the origins of 18-hole golf at St Andrews, the strategic terrors of Amen Corner, why the Stimpmeter matters to greenkeepers, and the rules oddities that trip up even tour pros. From Bobby Jones's 1930 Grand Slam to Tiger's historic comeback, this quiz covers the sport's greatest moments and deepest knowledge.
The four men's major championships are The Masters (April, Augusta National), the PGA Championship (May), the US Open (June), and The Open Championship (July, played on links courses in the UK). Winning all four in a career is called the Career Grand Slam.
Jack Nicklaus holds the all-time record with 18 major championship victories, earned between 1962 and 1986. Tiger Woods is second with 15 majors. Nicklaus's record has stood for nearly four decades and is considered one of the most unbreakable records in sports.
No one has won all four modern majors in a single calendar year. Bobby Jones achieved the Grand Slam in 1930, but that included the US and British Amateurs rather than the modern professional majors. Tiger Woods held all four trophies simultaneously across 2000-2001 (the "Tiger Slam"), but it spanned two calendar years.
