Abstract A golf glove including a main body having a palm portion and a back portion with a fastener means interconnecting segments of the back portion and defining retaining means for a ball marker. The fastener means includes first and second layers peripherally interconnected to define a pocket therebetween and a cut-out produces a closure for gaining access to the pocket. The fastener or flap is connected to the main body through an elastic member that is inserted between the two layers of the flap and connected to the main body, while one layer of the flap is in the form of a fastener element that cooperates with a second fastener element secured to the main body of the golf glove.
