Record number: 11, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Au golf, on donne des noms aux coups selon a) l'endroit duquel la balle est frappée : un coup initial sur un tertre de départ, un «coup de départ»(tee shot) ;sur l'allée, un «coup d’allée»(fairway shot) ;sur le versant d’une colline ou le long d’une allée en cascade, un «coup dénivelé»(sidehiller shot) ;depuis le haut d’une colline, un «coup en aval»(downhiller shot) ;depuis le bas d’une colline, un «coup en amont»(uphiller shot) ;sur le tablier(ou la lisière) du vert ou à proximité de celui-ci, un «coup d’approche»(approach shot), ce dernier coup pouvant soit 1. faire décrire à la balle un lob ou arc élevé pour que, avec un effet de rétro, elle s’arrête dès qu'elle touche le vert, un «coup d’approche lobé», ou «coup bombé», ou son générique, «coup d’approche-retenue»(pitch shot) ;soit 2. faire décrire un léger arc à la balle pour qu'elle roule sur le vert en y parvenant, un «coup coché», ou «coup calotté», ou son générique, coup d’approche-retenue) chip shot, dit aussi : pitch-and-run) ;soit 3. imputer à la balle juste la force nécessaire pour rouler jusque sur le vert, un «coup d’approche roulé»; ou b) la façon dont la balle est frappée : avec force, un «coup massé»(punch shot) ;avec une trajectoire en hauteur pour sortir d’une fosse de sable, de l'herbe haute ou d’un obstacle d’eau, un «coup éjecté»(explosion shot) ;ou avec une forte ou douce poussée du fer droit pour atteindre la cible sur le vert, un «coup roulé» ou «un roulé»(a putt). 2, record 11, French, - coup

Record number: 12, Textual support number: 2 DEF
An iron with a face angled to 55 degrees to give the most loft as in pitch or chip shots to put the ball on the green from close range; it is identical to a sand wedge but has a thinner base. 2, record 12, English, - pitching%20wedge
Record number: 12, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The term "wedge" (as its French equivalent "cocheur") is a generic for angled-face irons, though more often used to mean the "sand wedge" because, of the "sand wedge" and the "pitching wedge", it is the iron more often found in a golf bag. Nevertheless, it is better to use the term only when it is evident which club is meant. 2, record 12, English, - pitching%20wedge

Pour désigner ce bâton, on a d’abord utilisé l’anglicisme «pitching wedge», puis, dans les années 80, «wedge d’allée», jusqu’à ce que, sur la recommandation de l’Office de la langue française, on adopte «cocheur d’allée». Le terme «cocheur» (et son équivalent anglais «wedge») est un générique pour les bâtons à angle très ouvert qui ne peut être utilisé pour signifier ce bâton qu’une fois établi qu’il est question d’un «cocheur d’allée» ou d’un «cocheur de sable»; «fer-plat», ou «fer plat», n’a plus cours. 3, record 12, French, - cocheur%20d%26rsquo%3Ball%C3%A9e
