Whether you decide to take your golf holiday Algarve, Australia, Singapore, or other golf resort around the world. You have to keep in mind there are difference from golf club local rules as opposed to your home club. Besides these local rules, there are also differences in the culture of the people in that country. You need to be aware of these differences to avoid unnecessary misunderstand during your golf game. This is important especially if you join the local golfer to form a flight.
Below are some tips you should be aware:-
1) Time zone:
Some country sun rises as early as 6 in the morning and get dark almost unplayable at around 6.30 in the evening. If you are not aware of the time zone difference, you may end up not able to complete your 18 holes if you tee off at the wrong time.
