A gender-neutral figure mid-swing, club raised over one shoulder in a golfer's stance. It covers the sport at any skill level, from tee times to weekend rounds to golf-course selfies, and gets a knowing use for anything read as a leisurely, well-off hobby.
What 🏌️ means
A full-length back profile of a gender-neutral person in a casual outfit, raising a golf club with both hands above one side of the shoulder while bending one leg a little and holding the other in place.
The 🏌 Person Golfing emoji refers to any golfer; professional, beginner, intermediate players, irrespective of gender and sex. It signifies recreation, skill, luxury (because golf is a luxury sport) and even acing at something.
This emoji is available in the designated skin tones on almost all platforms
How and when to use it
- If you're posting a picture or video of yourself golfing, you can use 🏌 in the caption.
- If you're a professional golfer, or you just love the idea of golfing, you can use 🏌 in your social media name.
- If you're reposting or retweeting a golfing video (it can be a seriously tremendous ace or even a cute golfing video with a puppy, anything), you can use 🏌 in the post caption or within the tweet too.
- If you're too broke for golf and you're not really a fan of the sport, you can use 🏌 to denote a sense of accomplishment in textual conversations. For example, if you just aced an exam and you're texting a close someone about it you can say something like "Hey. Guess what. I aced today's paper 🏌".
- Apart from golfing, 🏌 also looks like someone is going to get whacked. So, if you're texting about smashing someone (in a casual and playful context, please), you can use this emoji in that conversation. Like "Stop it. I'mma come to your place and kick you in the face 🏌".
