Okay, maybe you read the headline and you're like, "C'mon Jackie. Golf is entertainment for old people." Sure, it's a little slower than other sports, but I promise, if you give it a chance you may surprise yourself. Here are 10 reasons why you should give golf a chance.

1. It's pretty easy to understand.

Try to get the ball in the hole with the least amount of strokes. Like any sport, it's easier said than done. Yep, Barney, that simple.

2. A bunch of cool kids are doin' it.

Okay, just because all the cool kids are doing it doesn't mean you shoulddo it too. But in this case, you should try. Wouldn't it be cool to bump into Niall or JT while golfing? Talk about goals.

3. Golf lingo impresses people.

Even if you don't talk to Uncle Jim about anything, golf will most likely be in his realm of vocabulary. By round 3 of The Masters, you'll find yourself saying, "Man, did you see Dustin Johnson three-putt 18 for double bogey, giving Jordan the go-ahead putt for the green jacket?" Right on.

4. Jordan Speith.

Well, if you don't know who he is, you should definitely ask Grandpa Google to help ya with that. He went to a Jesuit high school (#represent), is 22 years old, and is currently seeking out his second career Masters win as I am writing this. He's the Tiger Woods of our generation and it's awesome watching him achieve his goals. And last I heard, he's single, sooo...

5. You can see players lose their cool...

Even to the point where they throw their clubs in the water...

It's only pure coincidence that both GIFs are of Sergio Garcia.

6. You can get all the feels from a win.

Everyone is so excited when Adam Scott (the golfer, not Ben from Parks and Rec) won the 2013 Masters.

Or, James Hahn channelling his inner Psy!

7. You can witness crazy shots like this!

I mean the rules do say to play the ball where it lies.

8. Golf Channel.

If watching the major tournaments just aren't enough for you, then you've got the golf channel. Golf all day every day, 24/7.

9. Super gorgeous views

In order to make the course look pristine, the Masters go to extremes. I've heard rumors that they put the plants in ice to stunt the growth of them until the Masters weekend comes around. They also paint the flowers if they don't bloom on time!

10. If you're really not into it, it will cure your insomnia.

Okay, okay. Stop rolling your eyes, you really don't want to watch golf. Even if you don't enjoy golf, anyone could still use it to their advantage. All you do it turn it on and let the soothing sounds of the commentators' voices lull you to a deep sleep.

Regardless, golf is awesome and you should definitely try watching it sometime! Enjoy the Masters!
