An eagle is a large bird of prey known for its majestic appearance, powerful flight, and keen eyesight. With their sharp, hooked beaks and strong talons, they are skilled hunters that primarily feed on small mammals, birds, and fish. Eagles are characterized by their impressive wingspan, which allows them to soar through the skies with great agility and grace. They are often associated with strength, courage, and freedom, and their regal presence has made them symbols of power and nobility in various cultures around the world.

What is an "eagle"?

An eagle in golf is when a player completes a hole in two strokes less than par, which is the standard number of strokes for that hole. For example, if a hole is a par 5, an eagle would mean completing it in 3 strokes. Scoring an eagle is a significant achievement and indicates an excellent performance on that hole, often due to a long drive or an accurate approach shot. Eagles help lower a player's overall score and are highly sought after in competitive golf.
