What is a tee in golf?
1. Where golfers start the hole. 2. The object used to elevate the golf ball from the ground.
Definition
1. The designated starting area where golfers begin play on each hole, featuring level ground and maintained turf for optimal tee shot conditions. 2. A small wooden or plastic peg used to elevate the golf ball above the ground for tee shots, available in various heights to accommodate different clubs and player preferences. Tee selection depends on club choice, swing style, and course conditions. Proper tee height for drivers typically positions half the ball above the club head when addressing the ball. Using appropriate tee heights helps optimize launch conditions and ball flight characteristics for different clubs and shot requirements.
