The player moves through each hole, and the ball may be located on the fairway 210, the green 220, the bunker 230, the rough 240, or the water hazard 250 by the shot of the player. In particular, the player's ball is located in the out of bounds (OB) (not shown) or falls into the water hazard 250, etc., it can be seen by the position information that the player is in the position or within a predetermined distance.

In this case, the operation terminal or the operation server may output a message to the display unit to add a penalty to the score of the corresponding player. The user (caddie or player) may perform or cancel the penalty input according to the penalty message, and when performing the penalty input, the penalty for the penalty is preferably stored in the score information of the player.

Although the present invention has been shown and described with reference to the preferred embodiments as described above, it is not limited to the above embodiments and those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Various changes and modifications will be possible.

The present invention provides a distance or direction information with respect to the hole cup at the player's position in the course of a golf game, and any one or more of altitude difference, wind direction, wind speed, humidity or temperature, which are external environmental information required for the play. It can be used for a golf course's game operation system that can improve the player's game performance by providing the player to the player.
