Studies have shown that more than 90 percent of golfers do not buy
golf insurance before going on a golf vacation. 7 percent golfers from the rest too dont have adequate insurance cover. The reason being, golf is considered as one of the safest games where chances of meeting any unexpected mishap are very less. But the latest findings suggest that there have been many court cases in the past where golfers were liable for stray shots and therefore, were held responsible for injury or damage caused to another person or golfer.
There is no doubt that golf is comparatively a safer sport than those of scuba diving, skiing, water sports, rugby, etc but still it is associated with a number of risks.
