We began our journey of sharing funny golf quotes on social media in early 2022. As our followers grew, we loved seeing which quotes got the most likes and laughs.
Golf is a difficult sport to master, and all golfers—regardless of age or experience—can relate to the frustrations that come from our inability to hit a small white ball with a stick in the exact right direction, distance, and speed that we want to.
I’ll admit we had a few duds, but for the most part you got some pretty good laughs from our sarcastic, witty, frustratingly accurate and relatable quotes about golf. Keep reading for a recap of the top ten most loved funny golf quotes that we shared in 2022.
#10
“Why am I using a new putter? Because the last one didn’t float very well.”
—Craig Stadler
Oh, the dreaded putter throw. We often judge those who lose their cool on the course—especially when it’s the pros—but when we’re in that moment when complete and utter frustration boils over into uncontrolled anger, it sure does feel like the exact right thing to do.
#9
“The only sure rule in golf is he who has the fastest golf cart never has to play the bad lie.”
— Mickey Mantle
Do you have a guy in your group that always seems to race off before everyone’s even finished teeing off? And his ball never seems to miss the fairway? *Eye roll.* You know what he’s up to. The only questions is…are you going to call out that lying, cheating son of a b****?
#8
“Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots – but you have to play the ball as it lies.”
— Bobby Jones
At first glance, this statement seems so wholesome and full of truth—golf is like life because you never really know how things are going to turn out, but you have to just take it as it comes.
But then you remember that there are liars and cheaters out there—like Mickey Mantle hinted above—both in golf and in life. Sorry..pessimistic much?
#7
“Golf is like sex. When it’s good, it’s terrific. When it’s bad, it’s still pretty good.”
— Anonymous
Nothing else needs to be said.
#6
Me: Unable to hit a green the size of Texas.
Also Me: I have a gap here.
Everyone loves a good meme. This one quite accurately depicts the unwarranted optimism that often overwhelms us when we’re faced with an impossible shot, forgetting that just moments before we shanked it to the exact location from where we are now about to attempt a heroic swing. If you were bad enough to get yourself into this position, what makes you think you can squeeze it through? Yet you proceed to try anyway. So, considering your aim is clearly lacking, in this scenario do you aim for the tree(s) or the gap?
#5
“Golf is my therapy and also the reason I need therapy.”
— Paige Spiranac
There are several reasons why this was in our top 10. The first is because we can all relate to the feeling that some days our golf game can cause more headache than enjoyment, and the second I don’t think needs any explanation.
#4

#3
“Golf and Sex are about the only things you can enjoy without being good at it. “
— Jimmy Demaret
At this point you may have noticed a little bit of a theme popping up here in the top 10…I guess men like golf, sex, and boobs. Who knew?
#2
“It took me seventeen years to get three thousand hits in baseball. It took one afternoon on the golf course.”
— Hank Aaron
A classic golf quote from MLB Hall of Fame ball player, Hank Aaron. Even for those who excel at hitting a ball with a stick-like object, golf is in a league of it’s own. So the next time you’re having a bad round, just remember—even elite athletes have a hard time with this game. You’re doing great!
#1
When you’re having a terrible round and your buddy asks what you got on the last hole…
I don’t give a shit.
