How is your knowledge of golf trivia and terms? Some lingo in the golf world can seem like another language to someone not familiar with the game. Plus, aside from some of the made-up words, there are also golfers outside of Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods that people should know.

A. Won the 2014 Masters
B. Definition of Shamble Tournament
C. Sport added to the 2016 Olympics
D. Need insurance for this type of prize
