his or her second shot into the hole, the player gets a score of two and it counts as an eagle.

Birdie - Scored by a player who sinks the ball in the cup one stroke under par for that hole. For example,
if a player takes four strokes to put the ball in the cup on a par five, he or she gets a birdie.

Par - The number of strokes per hole it should take a player to sink the ball in the cup.
Bogey - When the number of strokes it takes to sink the ball in a hole exceeds the par by one. On a par
