It is noted that golf is not always portrayed without fiction. In Tolkien's Middle-Earth, for instance, it originated from knocking off goblin heads into rabbit holes.

The first Golf video game was released on September 3, 1970.

Electronic Arts, T&E Soft and Accolade published most of these games.
