ゴルフ（英語: golf、スコットランド語:gowf）は、コース（course）において、静止したボール（ball）をクラブ（club）と呼ばれる道具で打ち、ホール（hole、カップとも）と呼ばれる穴にいかに少ない打数で入れられるかを競う球技の一種。一人で行う競技であり、対戦はコンペティティブ・ペーシェンスとして行われスコアで比較される。スポーツとして広く親しまれているが、一般人によるプレイはレジャーとして位置付けられる場合が多い。近年の日本では女性も気軽にできるスポーツとして「ゴルフ女子」という言葉も生まれ老若男女問わず親しまれるスポーツとなっている。漢字では打球（だきゅう）、孔球（こうきゅう）、芝球などと表記される。英語での発音は「ガァルフ | ゴォルフ」[gɑ'lf | gɔ'lf]。
