This in fact is a false belief as golf is quite the opposite and therefore becoming one of the most popular sports. For a long time playing golf was thought to be reserved for old people in their retirement years or those who liked to dress awkwardly which sprouted a lot of golf typecasts. However, golf has experienced a tremendous rise in its reputation, thanks to several well-known players who have made a point of encouraging people of all ages to play the game.
