Mulligan (games)
A mulligan is a second chance to perform an action, usually after the first chance went wrong through bad luck or a blunder. Its best-known use is in golf, whereby it refers to a player being allowed, only informally, to replay a stroke, although that is against the formal rules of golf. The term has also been applied to other sports, games, and fields generally. The origin of the term is unclear. Possible origin The earliest known use of the term is in a 1931 issue of the ''Detroit Free Press'', somewhat predating the earliest citation in the ''Oxford English Dictionary'' from 1936. The most common explanation of the term's origin is that it was named after a golfer with the surname ''Mulligan'', the main candidates being either David Mulligan or John A. "Buddy" Mulligan; however, no connection with these figures is recorded until several decades after the term entered common use. In 2017, Peter Reitan suggested that the term first arose in baseball sports writing and was associate ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
