Scratch’s Fitness & Golf Trivia: Answers, Winners & More!!

For those of you who don’t know this red-bearded cave dweller runs a weekly trivia game on both Facebook and Twitter! I am also rotating Trivia between golf and fitness! So check out Trivia This week on my RBF Facebook Page or Twitter page!

Here are Last Weeks Golf Questions & Answers!

About what percentage of fairways does a golfer who averages a score of 85 hit?
46

What was the average score in 2005 for all golfers on regulation length courses?
98.3

How far does the average golfer (who keeps a handicap) drive the ball?
200-260 yards for men and 150-200 yards for the ladies (but everyone over judges there own drives by an average of 20-40 yards)

How many players won multiple WGC titles during its first decade from 1999-2008?
Just 3

Why does a round of golf have 18 holes?
Even though the urban myth says its because a 5th of Scotch has 18 shots! 1 shot per hole! (which is true) St Andrews originaly had 12 holes on the course, 10 of which were played twice, making original rounds 22 holes long. But the RA decided this was much too long and decreased it to 18.(I’m going to accept both answers though, because I don’t think there is anyway that this is just a happy coincidence.

Blood Plasma, which excretes out of your pores via your sweat glands.

Where do crunches help you lose fat?
