The purpose of this research aims to trace the rise and decline of golfing in Taiwan. Through the investigation and analysis of golfing history, we divide the golf development into main four periods-Importing period (1918-1945), Rebuilding after World War Ⅱ (1945-1965), Achievements in International Contests (1965-1988), Division and Decline (1988-2007). From the four periods mentioned above, we conclude six crucial turning points that caused the rise and decline of golfing in Taiwan. 1) The period of Japanese colonial, golfing set a prospective foundation. 2) After WWII, with the contribution from players who went abroad for further learning of golf skills, golfing returned to the ordinary track rapidly. 3) Meanwhile, golfing associations developed steadily and had outstanding performances in international contests with the support from the military and government. 4) Because of the contribution of golf associations, golfing in Taiwan took the leading place among Asian countries. 5) Due to the impact of scandals, the image of golfing had been seriously ruined. 6) Golf associations divided up and a huge gap of golfing education revealed. As a result, some suggestions are made as followings. First of all, golf associations should be integrated and engage in more activities for public welfare to rebuild social image. In the second place, golf associations should strive for more international big-scaled contests to be held in Taiwan. Moreover, golf associations should make up practical and international golfing education plans. In addition, golf associations should encourage golfing as part of PE courses in schools of all levels. Last but not the least, government should make up policies and build public golf courses to popularize golfing.
