In the early days of golf when a hole was completed in one under par it was called a birdie;
when completed in two under par it was an eagle; and
originally it was proposed to call a hole completed in three under par by the name partridge.
However the last proposal was scrapped when it was realised that you couldn't get a partridge on
..a Par three !!!!!
I'll get my coat!!
