Effective Medical Director Leadership. The role of the Medical Director has become increasingly important over the past year.

The etymology of the word bunker itself is variously ascribed to the 16th century Scots word 'bonkar', meaning a chest, or, by some, to Scandinavian or Old Flemish. The word Bunker in golf does not appear until the 1812 Royal & Ancient rules of golf. The word 'hazard' is French in origin, much as Caddie, reflecting the strong connections between Scotland and France in earlier times. When courses were created inland they incorporated the tradition of these hazards as the Bunker and the Water Hazard.
Hole-by-Hole. A normal golf hole will take a group of professionals or a group of average amateurs around 10 to 15 minutes. This is why courses schedule tee times every 10 minutes. This equals an 18-hole round of 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours.If playing with a full foursome, expect the round to take near the maximum of four or five hours.y Matthew Fortuna. The speed of a round of golf depends on the skill of the player, the traffic of the course, the size of the course, the size of the group and the mode of moving around the course. Golfing 18 holes averages around four hours for average players.
