The plugin uses WordPress's gettext filter at priority 20 to remap SportsPress strings to golf-specific terms.
​

The mappings apply only to the sportspress text domain.
​

Beyond text remapping, the plugin removes the player Positions taxonomy from the SportsPress post type registration via sportspress_taxonomies and removes the position column from the players list table via sportspress_player_admin_columns. The sportspress_has_positions filter also returns false, suppressing position-related UI elsewhere.
​

This is a deliberate choice: golf has no positional roles in the team-sport sense (each player is independent), so the positions concept is hidden rather than relabelled.
