Golfers are:
- easily identifiable by their clothing and thus easily avoided
- have to put up with club rules and customs that they don't particularly like
- tend to drink at the club bar so staying away from other pubs/bars
- usually buy and maintain larger cars in order to transport expensive golf bag and clubs
- create lonely golf 'widows'
- can frequently be beat by talented players who show little or no interest in purchasing expensive golf clubs thus infuriating some of those who do
As a bonus they spend a lot of money trying to improve their play or look like their golfing heroes which keeps non-golfers in work.
I mean I'm not saying all of the above was planned but its not all bad.

4 is a benefit? Seems like the environmental impact of golf is worsened by golfers with bigger cars.
5, 6 & 7 don't really benefit anybody.
Gowf is pish.
