Kerbedanz Golf
KERBEDANZ has given this magnificent piece of jewelery that represents your watch, the name «GOLF» – the terms golf, colf, kolf and chole which were the names for a variety of medieval “stick and ball” games in Britain and in continental Europe.
They are all clearly derived from a common word in a pre-modern European language, following Grimm’s grammatical law that details the clear phonetic similarities of these words.
So golf, the game, the implement and the golfing society are all derived from the same etymological origin, meaning club.
