double bogey
This term is a specialized piece of golf jargon used to describe a specific scoring outcome. It carries a negative connotation for the player, as it indicates a significant struggle on a particular hole, though it is far less severe than a triple bogey or a quad bogey.
Because it is a technical term within a sport, it is used almost exclusively in the context of golf matches, scorecards, and sports commentary. It functions as a discrete unit of measurement for performance on a per-hole basis.
