DIVOT

A divot is a small piece of turf or sod that is cut out of the ground, typically by a golf club during a swing. The term comes from Scottish dialect and has been part of golfing vocabulary for centuries. Good golf etiquette requires players to replace their divots or fill them with a sand and seed mixture to help the course heal.

Strategy Tip
