In a golf ball including a core, an intermediate layer, and a cover, the relationship of the surface hardness between an intermediate layer-encased sphere and the ball satisfies a predetermined relational expression, and with an initial velocity of the ball and a deflection under a predetermined load applied to the ball optimized, and letting a value of (initial velocity of core×weight of core) be Ciw, a value of [(initial velocity of intermediate layer-encased sphere−initial velocity of core)×(weight of intermediate layer-encased sphere−weight of core)] be Miw, and a value of [(initial velocity of ball−initial velocity of intermediate layer-encased sphere)×(weight of ball−weight of intermediate layer-encased sphere)] be CViw, the expression of Ciw+Miw+CViw is optimized, and lift and drag coefficients at predetermined Reynolds numbers and spin rates of dimples are set to predetermined ranges.
A multi-piece solid golf ball comprising a core, an intermediate layer, and a cover, wherein a large number of dimples are formed on an outer surface of the cover, and a relationship between a surface hardness of an intermediate layer-encased sphere and a surface hardness of the ball satisfies the following condition:
