Females are often overlooked in the game of golf. There are substantially more male than female golfers and the PGA is the center for golf, and the PGA is all male. Golf represents much more than just performance. It gets people together with their friends or introduces them to people they’ve never met before. Golf gives people the passion to obtain lower scores. It is good exercise (if they do not use a cart) and gets people outside. Golf is a life sport. And this is why it is important to get everyone involved with golf, not just men. England Golf sees the opportunity to get more women playing the game. They created the Girl Golf Rocks program to get boost female participation in the sport. The program teamed up with literally hundreds of clubs across the UK for support and help host events for the program. England Golf is utilizing their social media accounts to promote Girls Golf Rocks and the events it holds. They continue to release new posts every week about new events for Girls Golf Rocks to remind people. They also include links in the caption section to help girls navigate to the correct page to sign up. I think England Golf is doing a great thing for females and the game of golf by pushing such programs.

• “Women on Par is a great way to make new friends and have a go at something that you’ve never tried before. Secure one of the packs before they go! bit.ly/2Hg8Plz
• How the website describes it:
  • It’s a nine-hole event for women to participate in. The event does not keep score of strokes but by challenges instead to help the players learn basic skills of the game, the rules, and etiquette. Its target is to get more women involved with the game and have a good time while doing so. Like hitting the green in one. They give out free packs for the first 200 orders, and then you must purchase a pack. A pack includes ball markers for the players, challenge scorecards, player registration sheets, promotional flyers. You set up your own events with any group size.
• Analysis
  • This tweet does a good job of promoting one of their events and showing support for female golfers. They provide a picture in the tweet to attract attention from other tweets they post. This event has been done in the past and has had great success. They have been growing the game of golf for women all across England with a big thanks to events like this one. However, I think they could incorporate more into this event instead of just a round of golf. Women on Par should include a singular location for the event so that all participants can play together and meet one another. This would bring out the social aspect of the game of golf.

is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Where does it come from?

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
