What is the standard of care required by a golf club owner to ensure the safety of a golf course?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Matharu v. Nam, 2006 BCSC 937 (CanLII):

Where, as here, there is a duty of care, the question arises as to the applicable standard of care. As Rowles J. said in Finnie v. Ropponen, supra, there are some risks incidental in the game of golf. Players may be taken to know of the risk of being hit.
