Model Answer:

Introduction: 
I am not a sporty person and have never been into any sports or games seriously, but recently I came across a game which I found quite interesting and would like to learn it. The game I am talking about is "Golf".

What it is:
Golf is a club-and-ball sport in which players use various clubs to hit balls into a series of holes on a course in as few strokes as possible. It is a precision club-and-ball sport, in which competing players, called golfers, use many types of clubs to hit balls into a series of holes on a golf course using the fewest possible number of strokes.

How it is played: 
The game is played on a golf course, which consists of a series of holes, usually 9 or 18. A golfer uses different clubs for different types of shots, such as a driver for long-distance shots and a putter for short-range shots. The objective of the game is to complete each hole in as few strokes as possible, with the golfer who completes the course in the fewest strokes being the winner.

How many players can play it together:
Golf can be played alone or with up to three other players, with the players taking turns hitting their balls toward the holes on the course.

And explain why you would like to learn to play it:
I have always been fascinated by the precision and skill required to play golf. Watching professional golfers playing on TV, I am always amazed by the way they can hit the ball with such accuracy and control. It seems like a game that requires a lot of focus and concentration, which I find appealing. I also think that playing golf would be a great way to spend time outdoors, enjoy nature, and get some exercise.
