Bear with me while I digress and post a pet peeve. Golf is not a verb!! You don't golf, you play golf! There, I feel better now.

According to several dictionaries, golf is also a verb.

Cambridge Dictionary

Although the noun predates the usage as a verb, the word is reported to have been used as a verb since the 18th Century. However, you are on to something with the debate on whether golf is solely a noun or both a noun and a verb. Supposedly, serious golfers never use golf as a verb. Check out this article from Golf Digest.

As my Dear Professor Dr. Weaver would say, "Is the meat around a pig's ass pork?"
