Morphology

golf + equipment

The meaning 'collection of items used for playing golf' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'golf' (the sport) with 'equipment' (objects required for an activity). This noun + noun compositional pattern is regular and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily understand the phrase.

Etymology

Golf equipment is a simple compound of golf and equipment that creates a clear picture: a golf bag full of clubs, balls, tees and other tools for the game. So, it means 'the items used for playing golf'.
