Golfing... an "old man" or "ah pek" game, as it used to be known for in Singapore. Also, commonly identified as a means to network with business associates, or, for corporate and business hopefuls, a bonding method to get an edge over the competitor with a potential client or office boss. Mainly, golfing was always identified with work.
