Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum number of golf clubs a golfer is allowed to carry in their bag during a round is 14 clubs. This rule is set by the United States Golf Association (USGA) and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews (R&A), which are the governing bodies of golf. Golfers are not allowed to add or remove clubs during the round, except in certain situations where a damaged club may be replaced. Violation of this rule may result in penalty strokes or disqualification.
