To most golfers, the name conjures up what has become the standard bet in friendly match play games for professional and weekend golfers alike. They know that a "One Dollar Nassau," for example, means a dollar bet on the first nine holes, one dollar on the second nine and another dollar on the 18-hole match. Few ever stop to consider where the term originated. If they do, they too often think it derives from Nassau in the Bahamas. That's wrong, of course. The Nassau bet originated at the Nassau Country Club, Glen Cove, Long Island, New York, in 1900. In fact, the Nassau bet is only one of many jewels in the crown of the Nassau Country Club, a pioneer club in the world of golf, with a long and proud history.
