Split safely: a bad chip, a short-flying shot.

Burial in hometown: a shot in a bunker but the ball doesn't go out.

Great fortune: hitting the ball into a bunker too many times in a round.

The old man has moved to another bunker: hitting the ball from one bunker to another.

Changing to forest ranger: hitting the ball into the forest too many times.

Vietnam Airlines: a shot that flies very high but not far.

Dying in front of the hospital gate: a putt that stops a few centimeters from the hole.

Spitting: hitting the ball far but it lands right in front of the hole. face.

Passing from living to dead: refers to losing a ball, a chip, or receiving a penalty stroke.

President: the person with the best result in the group.

Santa Claus: the person who gives gifts to the whole group.

Water carrier: winning at one person's expense but losing to another without gaining anything.

Zero-degree green tea: people who play golf happily and relaxedly.

Crocodile: a seasoned golfer with good skill and technique, usually golfers with a handicap below 10.

Ghost: used to refer to golfers who frequently shoot under par compared to their handicap.

Where are you, miss?: a golfer who is having bad luck at the game often says this.

Captain: a way of referring to some golfers who are dishonest about their skill level. Intentionally falsifying handicaps to gain an advantage in competition. It's like Chinese products that are often unreliable. Pen swing: refers to dishonest players who write down incorrect scores to win prizes. Slang words disappear over time, and new, better ones emerge. Hopefully, in a highly technical and sophisticated sport like golf, we will continue to discover and create more valuable and meaningful slang words so that golf is not just a sport but also embodies the unique cultural aspects of Vietnam.
