API - application program interface. Related Terms. Application program interface (API) is a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications. An API specifies how software components should interact. Additionally, APIs are used when programming graphical user interface (GUI) components. A good API makes it easier to develop a program by providing all the building blocks.
By Rowena Pedrena. A traditional golf set has 13 clubs: three woods, nine irons (including three wedges) and one putter. The USGA limits the number of clubs a player may carry in his or her bag to 14. A player may include an additional wedge or wood to a fill a gap in hitting distance.
Fourteen clubs are the maximum allowed in one player's golf bag during a round played under the Rules of Golf. Any number below 14 is fine, but more than 14 is not. Also, those 14 clubs cannot be changed during the course of one round. You must finish with the 14 you started with. (There are some exceptions in the case of a club breaking.) However, if you begin with fewer than 14, you may add clubs during a round as long as no delay is caused and as long as the club(s) added are not borrowed from another golfer. To reiterate: If you are playing under the Rules of Golf, you can have no more than 14 golf clubs in your bag.
