Abstract
A golf ball having a plurality of dimples demarcated by edges on the ball's surface, characterized in that the dimples each assume a non-circular shape (as viewed form above) with mutually intersecting curved edge elements of the edges and at least one of these non-circular dimples is demarcated by the edge whose edge element bulges toward the inside of the dimple. The golf ball has improved aerodynamic performance due to dimples and achieves a long flying distance.
